So, this young woman in the NIH article (2015) is being treated with a 3 medication cocktail of top-tier medications because she has multi-drug resistant TB. Those 3 drugs happen to be teratogenic (harmful to fetuses). She has TB, she is pregnant and she is 15 years old. She is not yet an adult, however, she is a pregnant woman and she has certain rights. Who do the doctors protect?
So please read the article and let me know your thoughts. This is a tricky moral and ethical conundrum. How do we handle this situation?
What is the health professional to do?
Do you take the pregnant woman off the medications and risk infecting the community? Do you hospitalize the young woman and give her a massive hospital bill?
Do you pay for her expenses?
Do you force her to terminate the pregnancy?
Do you make her pay the costs associated with staying for months in a negative-pressure room in the hospital, so as to not infect others with TB?
Do you let her ride the subway and got to a movie theatre?
