Healthcare Ethics During a Pandemic	2020-04-13		.txt	text/plain	3568	222	48	In most disasters, and certainly during the current COVID-19 pandemic, frontline healthcare professionals face two key ethical issues: (1) whether to respond despite the risks involved; and (2) how to distribute scarce, lifesaving medical resources. To address one concern, on March 20, 2020, the American Academy of Emergency Medicine issued a position statement saying, in part, that they believe "a physician, nurse, PA, first responder or other healthcare professional has the right to be removed from the schedule of work requiring direct contact with patients potentially infected with COVID-19 for issues of personal health, such as being on immunosuppressive therapy or other similar concerns, without the risk of termination of employment." 15 Rarely discussed, but a key part of maintaining our workforce, is to support the psychosocial needs of the healthcare team.	./cache/cord-282457-80htwxm0.txt	./txt/cord-282457-80htwxm0.txt
