Abstract

This research analyzed actions, social control and bioethical dilemmas concerning the dengue control. Qualitative methodology – focal groups and interviews – has been employed. We concluded that Public Health actions aimed at dengue control must follow sanitary bioethical principles. Public managers, workers and users must act to prioritize public policies that benefit as many people as possible, as long as possible, resulting in best consequences for the entire community, and not allow any private, corporate or partypolitical interests to put the ethics commitment in risk. We believe it’s necessary to build new standards of relationship between users and public managers and between the Union, States and Municipalities, based on
Bioethics and co-management.
