How can governments strike a balance between protecting public health and individual liberties during times of crisis, such as a pandemic, while still ensuring the greater good of society?

Governments can strike a balance by implementing targeted public health measures that are evidence-based and proportionate to the threat posed by the crisis. They can also ensure transparency and clear communication to build trust and cooperation among the public. Additionally, governments should provide support and resources to individuals to help them comply with public health measures, such as access to healthcare and financial assistance. Ultimately, decisions should be guided by ethical principles that prioritize the well-being of all individuals while considering the broader impact on society as a whole.
