Un enfoque personalista ontológico de los dilemas surgidos en la pandemia COVID-19
Resumen
La pandemia COVID-19 ha dejado al descubierto, en forma dramática, la falta de inversión y gestión en el sistema de salud y las debilidades estructurales del sistema de protección social. El análisis de los dilemas que surgen como secuencia de la toma de decisiones para lidiar contra los efectos de la pandemia puede dejar de lado la protección y promoción del bienestar de la persona como centro de la organización de la sociedad, y centrarse solo en el bienestar colectivo e institucional. El personalismo ontológico como teoría bioética permite un análisis profundo de estos dilemas, ya que su base filosófica se centraliza en la defensa y promoción de la persona, y en la búsqueda del bien común. En este artículo se analizarán los fundamentos de esta corriente bioética y las respuestas que puede aportar a los dilemas morales expuestos en forma intempestiva por la pandemia COVID-19.
