description The Covid-19 pandemic has been the most defining event of our era. The world of healthcare has experiencedfirst-hand the dramatic situation of treating patients in the face of the dangers of contagion and limited re-sources. Difficult choices have everywhere been made alongside ethical reflection. Now that the viral infection is resurging, after a transient period of decline, there is an urgent need for fresh, anthropological, ethical reflection. It is important to avoid being unprepared to the possible occurrence of a similar event in the future, but above all, to now think in global terms. This is because the pandemic has forced us to recognise the urgency of building alliance in healthcare and a balanced relationship with the environment. (www.actabiomedica.it)
