Résumé : |
ENGLISH : Taking care of those who are in need of health care is something that we, as a society, feel ourselves committed to insofar as public funds make that possible. Is this commitment in any way qualified by the fact that a person's medical maladies are the result of that person having voluntarily embarked on activities whose deleterious consequences for health were known and appreciated by that person beforehand ? Specifically, is society's obligation to provide health-care services to those who have addicted themselves to illicit drugs attenuated by the fact of that addiction ? Some argue that it is, whereas others consider this position morally untenable. This essay explores the question of who is right on this matter and why. (Review' s abstract) |
