The book, “The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks” discusses many ethical issues related to science, medicine, and its social and cultural contexts. While this story is set in the US, many variants of this story have played out globally, most usually where the subjects are relatively disempowered. And while a historical story in many ways, these same debates frame our search and application of the next generation of global health science. There are TWO Parts to Your Assignment.
Part I: Initial Discussion Post (50 points)
Each student must make one initial discussion post (200-300 words) that includes the following:
1. Select a passage from the book that particularly resonated with you and that has an ethical element related to global health. Share the passage and give the page number (passage does not count toward the word total).
2. Explain why the passage particularly resonated with you, and discuss how you think the ethical dilemma related to global health, and how it could best be resolved or have been avoided.
3. Create an interesting title for your post.
