Problem
In 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic 'hit' the Philippines, a senate official of the country, who tested positive for COVID-19, brought his pregnant wife, who was about to deliver, to a hospital, exposing health care workers to COVID-19. Although he learned about the test result only while he was at the hospital with his wife, the official's conduct was strongly criticized. But the senator reasoned that his move was "an essential movement". Although the senator apologized later on for his conduct, it may still be asked whether he then acted rightly. Do you think it was "an essential movement"? Might the senator be right in thinking that it was? It has been said that his thinking was selfish thinking. Do you think that it was?
