Résumé

This article sets forth ethical principles for responding to extraordinary circumstances in which the demand for medical care threatens to overwhelm available resources, as in the COVID-19 pandemic. In light of these principles, the author then assesses the ethics of the SIAARTI guidelines for rationing ICU beds and ventilators under such circumstances.
