Abstract

Due to the alarming rise of antibiotic resistance, medically unwarranted use of antibiotics has assumed new moral significance. In this paper, a thematic content analysis of focus group discussions was conducted to explore lay people's views on the moral challenges posed by antibiotic resistance. The most important finding is that lay people are morally sensitive to the problems entailed by antibiotic resistance. Participants saw the decreasing availability of effective antibiotics as a problem of justice. This involves individual as well as collective moral responsibility. Yet, holding agents responsible for their use of antibiotics involves varying degrees of demandingness. In our discussion, these findings are related to the contemporary ethical debate on antibiotic resistance and two proposals for the preservation of antibiotic effectiveness are compared to and evaluated against participants' views.

由于抗生素耐药性的上升令人担忧，医学上不合理使用抗生素已具有了新的道德意义。本文对焦点小组讨论进行了主题内容分析，以探讨非专业人士对抗生素耐药性带来的道德挑战的看法。最重要的发现是，非专业人士对抗生素耐药性带来的问题具有道德敏感性。参与者认为，有效抗生素供应的减少是一个正义问题。这涉及个人和集体的道德责任。然而，要求代理人对其使用抗生素的行为负责涉及到不同程度的要求。在讨论中，我们将这些发现与当代关于抗生素耐药性的伦理辩论联系起来，并将两种保护抗生素有效性的建议与参与者的观点进行比较和评估。

Our aim is to publish readable papers of high scientific quality which will stimulate debate and discussion about ethical issues relating to all aspects of public health. Our main criteria for grading manuscripts include originality and potential impact, quality of philosophical analysis, and relevance to debates in public health ethics and practice. Manuscripts are accepted for publication on the understanding that they have been submitted solely to Public Health Ethics and that they have not been previously published either in whole or in part. Authors may not submit papers that are under consideration for publication elsewhere, and, if an author decides to offer a submitted paper to another journal, the paper must be withdrawn from Public Health Ethics before the new submission is made. The editorial office will make every effort to deal with submissions to the journal as quickly as possible. All papers will be acknowledged on receipt by email and will receive preliminary editorial review within 2 weeks. Papers of high interest will be sent out for external review. Authors will normally be notified of acceptance, rejection, or need for revision within 8 weeks of submission. Contributors will be provided with electronic access to their proof via email; corrections should be returned within 48 hours.
