Social justice, humanitarian reason, HIV-AIDS, government policy, bioethics, bio-vulnerabilityAbstract
Purpose/Background: This article analyzes some injustices experienced by those living with HIV-AIDS in the city of Bogotá (Colombia).
Methodology/Approach: To this end, it makes an approach to bioethics seeking to support the distributive nature of justice in relation to HIV- AIDS; then, based on Didier Fassin's academic work, he addresses the humanitarian reason category to reveal the challenges that underlie the absence of a specific policy for HIV- AIDS
Results/Findings: It offers recommendations that allow transforming the practical-political spaces of citizen participation for decision-making in health, in such a way that political justice is ensured within the framework of HIV- AIDS.
Discussion/Conclusions/Contributions: The work makes a contribution to the social reflection of bioethics in Latin America and the Caribbean because it exposes a concrete moral phenomenon (HIV-AIDS), from a certain cultural scenario (Bogotá), where life, dignity and human rights are at stake due to the absence of a specific government policy that responds appropriately to the serological reality stated here.
