Question
1. In the above case, had business ethic has been followed or violated?
By the end of 2020 and early 2021, the Indian
government had declared their victory against the
COVID 19 virus. The announcement was timely
made for India's 2021 election. During 2020-2021,
India had agreed to export 8.5 million vaccines
under their diplomatic agreements and a total of
51.3 million vaccines under business agreements
with other countries. While these diplomatic
relationships continue, India is now facing their
second wave of COVID 19 that has raked up
numbers to thousands of people in a single day.
The 2nd wave had surged faster due to India's
political parties holding rallies and campaigns for
their upcoming election that are not conducted
properly under the standard Covid-19 procedures.
The Indian government had also allowed religious
festivals to take place during that time that are
lacking of proper social distancing guidelines. In
order to handle their own vaccine shortages, the
Indian government had issued a ban on local vaccine
manufacturers from exporting its vaccines overseas.
These manufacturers are now at the risk of facing
legal suits for failing to comply to the terms of
their contracts. This action had triggered the chain
reactions from other countries. The United States
now bans the export of raw material to produce
vaccines to other countries. The European Union
had also announced that they will curb their vaccine
exports for 6 weeks.
