Concerns Who Gets the Ventilator? Study Raises on Allocation Decisions

The study showed that certain factors of a patient, which ethically should not be considered, have an influence on allocation decisions. This is concerning because it is possible that an already vulnerable population is more susceptible to the pandemic due to personal preferences. As a result, it may be necessary that a consensus reached by the government, media, and general public should be arranged to eliminate the possibility of biased decisions. However, the overall purpose of the study was to emphasize the dynamic relationship between culture, economy, and individual variables on social preferences and allocation decisions.
