Instructions
For this week's assignment respond to one of the following
options, and include Option 1, 2, or 3 as part of your heading.
Option 1:
The first option is to name and describe in detail a key specific
and recent healthcare technology. What are at least two key
moral problems this technology creates? What are the proper
moral guidelines for dealing with it in your view? Compare your
approach to what a utilitarian and ethical egoist would say (each
independently). Consider whether differing ethical beliefs
globally might or not agree with what you say.
Option 2:
In the second option, name and describe in detail a key specific
and recent social technology. What are at least two key moral
problems this technology creates? What are the proper moral
guidelines for dealing with it in your view? Compare your moral
approach to what a utilitarian and social contract ethicist would
say (each independently). Consider whether differing ethical
beliefs globally might or not agree with what you say.

2. Option 3:
John Doe, Patient One, is in late stage of kidney disease. If he
does not receive a new kidney, then he is predicted to die within
a week. Doe is 45, single, and has no children. Doctors theorize
that Doe damaged his kidney by not following a low-salt diet.
Doe inherited one million dollars and is known for gi ving
money to charity. Without a transplant, he will probably be
forced to spend all his money searching for a kidney outside of
the usual legal channels. Patient Two is Jane Doe (no relation to
John). Patient Two is a mother of two children (ages 21 and 24).
She is divorced and 55 years old. She developed kidney
problems due to eating a high-fat and high-sugar diet. If she
does not receive a kidney within one month, doctors believe she
will die. Patient Three is an orphan. This orphan lives in a state
facility. She was born with a genetic condition that constantly
damages her kidney. The only known approach to her condition
is to provide her with a kidney transplant every so often. She is
11 and has already undergone two kidney transplants. She will
perish in two months if she does not receive another transplant.
All three patients are at the same hospital. The hospital only has
one kidney to give out. The orphan's birth parents were known
to be of a religion that is opposed to organ donation. The other
patients come from religions that do not oppose organ donation.
Who should get the kidney? Why should that candidate receive
it over the others? Devise a course of social action and a
solution for this case by using the ethics of egoism and then
utilitarianism to a key moral conflict involving health care in
this case. Appraise the interests of diverse populations (in terms
of ethnicity, race, religion, sexual orientation, etc.) and how
they relate to the case. Consider whether differing ethical
beliefs globally might or not agree with what you say.
For all the options:

3. Cite the textbook and incorporate outside sources, including
citations.
You should not be using any text you used in a discussion board
or assignment for this class or any previous class.
Consider whether differing ethical beliefs globally might or not
agree with what you say.
You will submit the following:
An audiovisual presentation that presents one of the options
above. Be sure to give equal time to each element. Doing a
PowerPoint presentation with audio recorded on the slides is
preferred. Please refer to the Narrated PowerPoint Tutorial
located in the Required Resources in this assignment.
Please provide a transcript of anything said in the recording
aloud that does not appear as text on a slide. This transcript can
be provided as a Word document or placed in the Notes section
on the PowerPoint slides.
The link or a scan of the article mentioning any health
technology, social technology, or case you are reporting on. If
you made up the case, please indicate that in your report. If you
choose to do option #3 (the case about a shortage of transplant
kidneys), your article would likely be an article about the
shortage of transplant organs, or a shortage of people signing up
to be transplant donors, or the status of educating people about
being donors, etc.
