Abstract
This blog post focuses on three age-related issues that emerged during the COVID-19 pandemics: (1) the use of age in triage, (2) the disaster experienced in care homes, and (3) idea of control measures sacrificing the young. It looks at these issues from the perspective of philosophical ethics, and especially from angle of the lifetime view.
