Sažetak
The COVID-19 pandemics have put every contemporary society in front of various challenges. While those are often reflected and explained through economic, political or medical lenses, it seems that thorough ethical and bioethical insights are too rarely exposed and made explicit. This presentation tries to give a contribution to neglected sphere of interconnection and interrelatedness of basic moral values and general, primarily public health, challenges. Moreover, it will be argued that by deeply disrespectful behaviour of influent institutions from global to national levels and inappropriate communication to the overall community (citizens) the value of elementary trust and respectfulness has been eroded, betrayed, and consequently brought to the plethora of economic, political, medical, and other challenges and troubles. The key argument is that the effectiveness of the public health measures are primarily rooted in stable and publicly communicated basic values, such as life and health, but the stability and communication of those values lays mostly in morally evaluated phenomena such as trust, respect, fairness etc. One of the most important lessons this pandemic could give the humanity is the almost self-evident, but often forgotten insight, that moral values are necessary glue of all values needed for functional society (and generally functional global community on Earth). The examples will be taken from Croatian example of social, political, and institutional confrontation to the COVID-19 pandemic.
