Legal Decision-making and Crisis Standards of Care
Extensive surges of patients coupled with shortages of staff and resources throughout the COVID-19 pandemic have contributed to repeated crises in US hospitals and health care facilities. Most of these hospital admissions and patient deaths were preventable through widely available and efficacious SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. Still, nearly 40% of vaccine-eligible people in the US are not fully immunized, 2 suggesting additional patient surges are foresee…

It’s a grim reality. Included among the 232,000 deaths in the US attributable to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are more than 1336 physicians, nurses, environmental staff members, technicians, orderlies, emergency medical technicians, and other health care workers
Exchanging Identifiable Health Information Among Health Departments

The US Food and Drug Administration’s forthcoming national menu labeling regulations are designed to help curb the national obesity epidemic by requiring calorie counts on restaurants’ menus. However, posted calories can be easily ignored or misunderstood by consumers and fail to accurately describe the healthiness of foods. We propose supplemental models that include nutritional information (e.g., fat, salt, sugar) or specific guidance (e.g., “h…

An emerging alternative to traditional partner management for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) is expedited partner therapy (EPT), which involves the delivery of medications or prescriptions to STD patients for their partners without the clinical assessment of the partners. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently recommended EPT nationally in limited circumstances; however, its implementation may raise legal concerns. We analy…

Protecting public health requires the acquisition, use, and storage of extensive health-related information about individuals. The electronic accumulation and exchange of personal data promises significant public health benefits but also threatens individual privacy; breaches of privacy can lead to individual discrimination in employment, insurance, and government programs. Individuals concerned about privacy invasions may avoid clinical or publi…
