Reflecting on the global pandemic caused by COVID-19, theological ethics examines political dynamics, focuses on those affected, discusses hard ethical choices, comments on religious engagements, considers language choices, reflects on the impact on ordinary lives, and ponders what should follow after controlling the infection. Learning from the past and the present, looking forward requires targeted engagements aimed at promoting health, a critical rethinking of human progress, a renewed solidarity accompanied by social reforms, and a sustainable future.
