Metaverse, mental health and museums in post-COVID-19.

In this article, I extend the modalities of mental health integration to the metaverse further toward the alternative case of museums. Some countries have modeled health facilitations of psychological nature to museums either physically or virtually. The metaverse as the incorporation of digital and actual bodies poses a further philosophical question of addressing the network of institutional and personal somatic modifications in the post-COVID-19 era.

Global health governance and disaster recovery for rebel returnees during COVID-19.

This article highlights the need for governing some gradual ruptures from the past to achieve a sense of new normalcy in public health. The rebel returnees during the pandemic form a case of a vulnerable group who triply experience disasters: from the pandemic and natural disasters to terrorism. Global health governance carries on the management of past problems attaining their maturation and faces new ones for disaster recovery.

Geophilosophical exemption to mandatory vaccination.

This correspondence introduces the ethics behind a specific exemption to mandatory vaccination. Public health acknowledges medical and non-medical reasons for vaccination exemption. Geophilosophical ones, which the author coined, can provide an option to remote populations with low density and are seeking more choices in confronting the dilemma of being vaccinated.

Vanishing mediators in public health during COVID-19.

Public health interventions during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic aim to ensure that the lessons learned of the crises can prevent historical recurrences. Such interventions can mean vanishing mediators that must cater to a post-pandemic structure. Learning from large-scale political and scientific histories or advances-emancipatory projects, pandemic histories and vaccine developments-as well as individual agencies-physical activity and exercise-at the moment become crucial in rethinking and enacting utopian possibilities.

COVID-19, conspiracies and manufactured consent.

Questions about what comes next for the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic have been posed by the editors to everyone except those who proliferate conspiracy theories. Conspiracy theories have consequences for public health. Making these dangers known can initiate discussions on public trust. The problem is that the pressing concerns of the pandemic have enabled manufactured consent to be a suspicious thing known of the propaganda model more than ever. Although such a model can be put into question, the public must also be able to practice empathy and true choice so that asking and responding to the questions at hand considers a responsibility to public health.

Radicalizing moral conservatism in herd immunity during COVID-19.

The concept of herd immunity during the coronavirus disease 2019 is constantly changing. The World Health Organization's current focus is on vaccination. With ties to the bioethics of autonomy and exemptions to mandatory vaccinations, the problem is that moral conservatism tends not to cooperate in the rollouts. Radical means can be applied not just to the concept but also its application, emphasizing the need to depart from conservative hindrances to public health.

Migration and indigenous health during COVID-19.

Indigenous communities during the pandemic are a precarious group. While they rely on the epistemological formation of their own knowledge systems, an integrated concept of indigenous health must include cooperation with other institutions and organizations. Drawing from grounded insights, this article highlights the crucial applicability of this idea to migrant indigenous groups during the pandemic.

Zero waste and Wastephilian ethics during COVID-19.

Responsibility toward the planet becomes imperative during the pandemic. Among the pressing issues, this is the management of waste. Ethical considerations on waste pertain to the consistency of adopting viewpoints that confront waste and its reality. Zero waste prospects remain to be an ideal in the perceived sustainable futures. The ethics of wastephilia or wastephilian ethics can reimagine sustainability in terms of waste management. While acknowledging the spectral or circular character of waste, wastephilian ethics confronts this reality by living-with waste.

Sustainable diet and cruciform ethics during COVID-19.

Health inequalities in food challenge sustainable prospects during the pandemic. Basic sustainable diet practices may address this issue, but problems of nutrition arise due to unhealthy eating habits. An inductive approach through curbing one's diet forms certain ethics, which takes into account one's sacrifices for the collective. This article proposes that cruciform ethics can introduce a reimagination of sustainable diets during coronavirus disease 2019.
