Abstract:
Protection for privacy is the guarantee for sustaining personal dignity and individual liberty.Protection for patients' privacy has a long history and is of great realistic significance.However,patients with A H1N1 Influenza are facing the risk of exposing privacy in current circumstances.This paper argues that the privacy protection for this particular population is beneficial both for social and public interests,and also can be justified from an ethical perspective.
