Compensation Programs For Vaccine-Related Injury Abroad: A Comparative Analysis, Wendy K. Mariner Sep 1987

Compensation Programs For Vaccine-Related Injury Abroad: A Comparative Analysis, Wendy K. Mariner

Faculty Scholarship

Adverse physical reactions to immunizations, 1 although comparatively rare, raise fundamental questions about the relationship between the state and the individual. In the United States, responsibility for vaccine-related injuries has been judicially and administratively debated for nearly two decades, beginning with the seminal decision of Davis v. Wyeth Laboratories. The primary issue is whether a person who suffers an unpredictable adverse reaction to a vaccination is entitled to receive compensation for his or her injuries, and if so, whether compensation should be provided by the manufacturer of the vaccine as part of its responsibility for the effects of its products, …

Getting To Market: The Scientific And Legal Climate For Developing An Aids Vaccine, Wendy K. Mariner, Robert C. Gallo Jul 1987

Getting To Market: The Scientific And Legal Climate For Developing An Aids Vaccine, Wendy K. Mariner, Robert C. Gallo

Faculty Scholarship

Expectations of a vaccine to prevent acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) are rising.

Identification of the causal agent-the retrovirus called HTLV-III, LAV, or generically, HIV (human immunodeficiency virus)-has provided the direction and limited the options for containing the disease.

Prevention is, of course, critical where the disease must be presumed to be fatal in all cases. Although there is no clear evidence that any single exposure to HIV will result in infection or disease, prudence …


Surrogate Parenthood, George J. Annas, John Robertson Jun 1987

Surrogate Parenthood, George J. Annas, John Robertson

Faculty Scholarship

Does a surrogate mother have the right to change her mind? Not according to the Baby M court, which enforced a $10,000 contract between Mary Beth Whitehead and William and Elizabeth Stern that it found was "in the best interests of the child." The decision is now on appeal before the New Jersey Supreme Court.

The case has produced sharply divided reaction-some denounce surrogate arrangements as Orwellian while others see them as a boon to childless couples.

George Annas, a professor of health law at Boston University's School of Public Health, would void these contracts on policy grounds. He believes …


How To Argue About Health Care, Don Herzog Feb 1987

How To Argue About Health Care, Don Herzog

Articles

Despite the aggressive title of this article, my goals are modest. I begin by explaining briefly what should at any rate be obvious: that health care policies inescapably raise moral and political difficulties, difficulties that no technical fix could resolve. I move on to puzzle over the connections between some of the more abstract issues of moral and political theory and medical policy: here I urge that we develop a more sustained taste for exploring the moral conflicts embedded in our current practices. Finally, I suggest a strategy for making nitty-gritty facts-from the concrete world of third-party payment, expensive technology, …
