Single women are not allowed to undergo social egg freezing, and even married couples are prohibited from social embryo freezing. This paper argues, from the perspective of Confucian virtue ethics, which is still the most influential traditional ethical framework in contemporary Chinese society, that prohibiting married couples from social embryo freezing cannot be justified. It also refutes the arguments supporting this ban point by point, showing that they are morally unfounded. The paper concludes that the ban should be lifted. This is not intended to encourage married couples to freeze embryos or to consider social embryo freezing an ideal reproductive choice according to Confucian ethics. Rather, it aims to highlight an important Confucian ethical point: just because social embryo freezing is not an ideal reproductive choice, it does not necessarily justify prohibition by state power.</p>","PeriodicalId":50590,"journal":{"name":"Developing World Bioethics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144700233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These outbreaks, often driven by rodent-to-human transmission in resource-limited settings, reflect persistent systemic health disparities. In recent years, mpox has also been reported in high-income countries (including the United States, United Kingdom and Europe), underscoring its global health implications beyond traditionally endemic regions. This article examines the mpox outbreak through the lens of public health ethics, evaluating how core ethical frameworks-justice (encompassing equitable vaccine distribution and addressing health inequities), solidarity and respect for rights (including intellectual property considerations)-shape outbreak management strategies. These strategies are ensuring equitable access to vaccines and therapeutics amid intellectual property barriers, combating stigma and misinformation through transparent risk communication and fostering international solidarity in coordinating responses. The analysis highlights how neglect of these principles exacerbates existing disparities and undermines the effectiveness of interventions. Integrating ethical principles into outbreak responses is critical for building public trust, accountability and community resilience. By distilling lessons from the mpox response, this article contributes to ongoing debates in public health ethics and outbreak preparedness, arguing that ethically grounded approaches are essential for fair and effective management of future public health crises.</p>","PeriodicalId":50590,"journal":{"name":"Developing World Bioethics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144660962","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, we focus on how this system addresses the challenges of trust, autonomy, and bioethics during the shared decision-making process. Our research shows that the two-way referral system has spawned new acquaintance networks, therefore improving communication and collaboration between doctors. Especially during upward referrals, benefits associated with care continuity have been made possible. However, doctors still tend to adopt defensive patient-centered strategies in referral communication. They consult patients' desires and play an information provider role. This is influenced by both procedural requirements imposed by managerial rules and uncertainty caused by medical consumerism. Thus, we argue that the Chinese bioethical issue of doctor-patient relationships has gradually turned to a mismatch of concerns between doctors and patients.</p>","PeriodicalId":50590,"journal":{"name":"Developing World Bioethics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144499068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite legislative frameworks like the Transplantation of Human Organs Act (THOA), significant challenges persist in reconciling traditional Indian perspectives on death with contemporary biomedical definitions. The paper analyzes how cultural perceptions of bodily integrity, religious beliefs about the soul's departure, and family-centered decision-making create unique ethical tensions in the Indian organ donation landscape.

Proposed vaccine distribution models generally were divided between nationalist models, which give preference to nationals, and cosmopolitan models, which ignore national boundaries. More defensible international vaccine distribution program proposals incorporate ethical considerations from both cosmopolitanism and nationalist models. To date, however, proposed models have insufficiently considered how global interdependence has resulted in economic and ecological harms by high-income countries (HICs) against low-to-middle income countries (LMICs). Because these harms create health burdens for the populations of LMICs, compensatory justice should impact distribution determinations.
