Because of its significant impact on health, society and the economy, responding to the COVID-19 pandemic requires not only an assessment of scientific and clinical information but also a reflection on key ethical principles and values. This approach enhances trust and solidarity and strengthens the legitimacy and acceptability of public health measures that must be put in place.
The Pandemic Ethics Advisory Group (PEAG) was established as an expert subgroup of the NPHET. With its expert advice, the Department of Health has published a number of ethical guidance documents aimed at supporting policymakers, healthcare providers and health and social care workers in undertaking their challenging roles.
The PEAG meets weekly or more often if necessary. Agendas and minutes of previous meetings are published here once approved by the subgroup.
NPHET approved ethical guidance is published here, as well as the PEAG’s terms of reference and membership.
