Abstract :

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in the unrespecting for fundamental human rights in healthcare industry. It appears that the right to healthcare in general, and the redistribution of the goods which are the most crucial for patients, in more specific terms are in conflict. Especially conflict arises a conflict between ensuring the best interest of patient and public health ethic. In my depth analyses the article will contribute to the overall strengthening of the value-based health policy, as the implementation of human rights standards in patients rights developed in response to the current pandemic crisis are now becoming an urgent global need. Human rights standards are instruments which guard human life, autonomy of patient, self-determination. Above all in correlation with their being based in the imperative of respect for human dignity as the source, they constitute an imperative for treating patients as a partner in theirs relataion to healthcare industry, and physicians.
