Catholic News Service: “Bishops: Long-held Ethical, Moral Principles Must Guide COVID-19 Response”
The NCBC was mentioned in an April 3, 2020, CNS story printed in Catholic San Francisco:
Bishop Rhoades and Archbishops Naumann and Coakley praised hospitals and medical personnel for their courage and compassion in treating the nation's COVID-19 patients. . . .
They acknowledged the difficult decisions about care confronting these health care workers, and urged them to read a number of important statements from Catholic health care and medical ethical organizations reminding them—and the general public—of ethical and moral principles to be applied in these difficult circumstances.
"The Catholic Health Association of the United States, the Catholic Medical Association, the National Association of Catholic Nurses-USA, and the National Catholic Bioethics Center have all published excellent reminders of these principles and guidelines," they said. "We ask people, especially medical professionals, to read these documents and apply them appropriately in their work."
