The Aids Epidemic: A Prism Distorting Social And Legal Principles, Alec Gray

New England Journal of Public Policy

The AIDS epidemic is affecting American society in far-reaching and unexpected ways. It touches our institutions, our value systems, and our private lives. Social issues seem to change and become distorted by the epidemic 's prismlike effect. This article examines some of the major public health issues raised by the epidemic, ranging from testing to contact tracing and quarantine. It argues that while the civil rights of individuals may have to be sacrificed to stem the spread of the disease, those rights should not be abandoned unless a clear benefit to the public health would result.

A Crisis In Insurance, Benjamin Lipson

New England Journal of Public Policy

As the life and health insurance industry evaluates its long-term financial goals, the cloud of Black Monday — October 19, 1987, the day the stock market collapsed — blurs its cherished investment income projections. With investment portfolios under siege, mutual life insurance companies and stock companies alike are wary of making policy-pricing miscalculations that could prove to be disastrous. As if that weren't enough, one single disease — acquired immunodeficiency syndrome — looms as the most serious threat to life and health insurers for the remainder of this century. The spread of the new disease has caused insurers to adjust …

What Has Happened Since Chakrabarty, Jane M. Marciniszyn

Journal of Law and Health

It is conventional wisdom that the patent system is designed to undergrid the investment in pushing technology forward. The patent system is innovation-oriented. And (sic) it functions most effectively in the expensive, breakthrough technologies, where uncertainties of success or payback abound. If, in assessing the risk of commitment, the penalties of failure outweigh the prizes of success, the prudent money will go elsewhere. The patent system moves the equation to the right, not by better assuring success (for only public needs and market values can do that), but by aiding success through offering the innovator a temporary respite from non-innovative …

Aids, Health-Care Workers, And Workers' Compensation In Virginia, M. Grey Sweeney

University of Richmond Law Review

The recent explosion of medical malpractice litigation has heralded the era of defensive medicine. Health-care professionals at all levels of the industry have been forced to evaluate both the lawsuit potential as well as the life sustaining potential of every act and treatment.' Since 1981, however, the threat of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) has added a third, more threatening, perspective to the way health-care workers must view their actions. The average doctor or nurse must balance not only the medical and legal significance of every action, but must also consider whether an action might result in exposure to AIDS.

A Hospital's Dilemma: The Legal Implications Of Promulgating Guidelines Concerning Human Immunodeficiency Virus, Leonard C. Heath Jr.

University of Richmond Law Review

Fear has struck the workplace. The source of this fear is not lack of job security, inflation, recession or a concern about the United States' trade imbalance. The source of the fear is a disease--Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS)-and the virus that causes AIDS, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).

Equality And The Citizens Of Sister States, Douglas Laycock

Florida State University Law Review

Professor Laycock's commentary is written in response to Lea Brilmayer's article in this edition. Brilmayer and Laycock agree that states owe equal treatment to citizens of sister states, and that the obligation does not extend to the exercise of government power. But Laycock would derive these rules from constitutional text and structural needs of the federal union. He think that Brilmayer's broader political theory is only marginally relevant to their shared conclusion.

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, …
