Abstract

Purpose: The COVID-19 pandemic broke out at the end of 2019, and throughout 2020 there were intensive international efforts to find a vaccine for the disease, which had already led to the deaths of some five million people. In December 2020, several pharmaceutical companies announced that they had succeeded in producing an effective vaccine, and after approval by the various regulatory bodies, countries started to vaccinate their citizens. With the start of the global campaign to vaccinate the world's population against COVID-19, debates over the prioritization of different sections of the population began around the world, but the prison population has generally been absent from these discussions.

Approach and findings: This article presents the approach of Jewish ethics regarding this issue, that is, that there is a religious and a moral obligation to heal the other and to take care of his or her medical well-being and that this holds true even for a prisoner who has committed a serious crime. Hence, prisoners should be vaccinated according to the same priorities that govern the administration of the vaccine among the general public.

Originality: The originality of the article is in a comprehensive and comparative reference between general ethics and Jewish ethics on a subject that has not yet received the proper attention.

囚犯接种 COVID-19 疫苗的犹太伦理。
目的:COVID-19 大流行于 2019 年底爆发,整个 2020 年,国际社会都在努力寻找该疾病的疫苗,该疾病已导致约 500 万人死亡。2020 年 12 月,几家制药公司宣布已成功生产出有效的疫苗,经各监管机构批准后,各国开始为本国公民接种疫苗。随着为世界人口接种 COVID-19 疫苗的全球运动的开始,世界各地开始就不同人群的优先次序展开讨论,但监狱人口一般都没有参与这些讨论:本文介绍了犹太教伦理在这一问题上的做法,即在宗教和道德上有义务治愈他人并照顾其医疗健康,即使是对犯有严重罪行的囚犯也是如此。因此,应按照在普通公众中接种疫苗的优先顺序为囚犯接种疫苗:文章的独创性在于对一般伦理学和犹太伦理学进行了全面的比较研究,而这一主题尚未得到应有的重视。

The JBI is also open to critical reflections on medicine and conventional bioethics, the nature of health, illness and disability, the sources of ethics, the nature of ethical communities, and possible implications of new developments in science and technology for social and cultural life and human identity. We welcome contributions from perspectives that are less commonly published in existing journals in the field and reports of empirical research studies using both qualitative and quantitative methodologies. The JBI accepts contributions from authors working in or across disciplines including – but not limited to – the following: -philosophy- bioethics- economics- social theory- law- public health and epidemiology- anthropology- psychology- feminism- gay and lesbian studies- linguistics and discourse analysis- cultural studies- disability studies- history- literature and literary studies- environmental sciences- theology and religious studies
