This week, we will discuss the ethical considerations surrounding the forced containment of those who may become infected with the Ebola virus.
For this assignment, you will first play the role of a senior advisor to the President of the United States. He has asked you to assist him in persuading the American people that containment is ethical.
Provide the American people (i.e. class members) with your justifications for containment. You should persuade them to believe that containing their sick family members is ethical.
