Topic: Many lives might be saved if inoculations against cow flu were routinely administered to all people in areas where the disease is detected. However, since there is a small possibility that a person will die as a result of the inoculations, we cannot permit inoculations against cow flue to be routinely administered.
Essay:
To evaluate the argument, one must know (1) the number of lives that could be potentially saved from the adminstration of cow flu vacines in diesease detected areas, (2) the number of people who will die from inoculations, as well as (3) the cost and ease of implementing such a policy. Understanding these three things will allow us to properly assess whether the benefits out weight the cost. For example, if the number of lives saved is less than the number of people who will ultimately die from cow flu inoculations, then this policy is not benefitical. However, if the number of lives that will be saved is extremely greater than the number of people who will die from inoculations, then the policy should be investigated further. Next, one must understand how easily this policy will be implemented. It may be that citizens will be uninterested in inoculations, and may become resistant. If this is the case, then forcing individuals to take incoulations may not be worthwhile. Additionally, if the cost of implementation is very great, then there may be better uses for those funds. For instance, it may be that another disease can be more readily tackled with the same funds. In summary, the number of potential lives saved must be compared with the number of potential deaths, then the ease of implementation of the policy must be explored to understand the ultimate benefits.
