In this conversation, Angie Hobbs, professor of the Public Understanding of Philosophy at the University of Sheffield and Mary Ann Sieghart, visiting fellow of All Souls College, Oxford and former Assistant Editor at The Times discuss the ethical challenges of Covid-19. They explore the ethical frameworks that could have been used to decide how the government dealt with the Covid-19 pandemic, stress the importance of protecting both future and older generations, and discuss whether the government has the same duty of care to non-residents as residents.
