Public Health and Civic Responsibility

Hugh Taft-Morales

Leader, Philadelphia Ethical Society

There has been renewed attention in the last few years to the link between public health and civic responsibility. That connection was recognized in the 16th century by Martin Luther, who wrote, “It is even more shameful for a person to pay no heed to his own body and to fail to protect it against the plague the best he is able, and then to infect and poison others who might have remained alive if he had taken care times over.” Hugh proposes that it is the responsibility of every person to consider the health of others when making decisions about vaccinations.

Those fully-vaccinated and boosted are welcome to join in-person at 1906 S. Rittenhouse Square. Please wear a mask indoors (N-95) and bring your proof of vaccination.
