Hello, can you please explain to me the following question?
A friend of yours has been diagnosed with drug-resistant
tuberculosis (TB). The disease is highly contagious, and it can be
deadly. Your friend’s doctors have urged her to wear a surgical
mask when she is around others, but she is too embarrassed to do
so. You understand her fears, but you are worried that your mutual
friends will contract the disease. The dilemma is: Should you tell
people about your friend’s diagnosis even though she has asked you
not to? In your answer, address the following questions
presented for evaluating ethical dilemmas.
1-Are the results worth the hardship involved?
2- Is it culturally acceptable?
3- Will my decision compromise people's privacy or trust?
4- Is the action appropriate for the situation?
5- How would I wish to be treated in the same
situation?
