Resumen

Objetivo: analizar las producciones científicas que discrepan sobre la relación entre la bioética y la realización de pruebas de vacunas contra el virus SARS-CoV-2. Metodología: se trata de una revisión integradora, en la que el estudio bibliográfico se realizó en las bases de datos MEDLINE, SCIELO y BVS, utilizando los descriptores "bioethics", "COVID" y "vaccine" asociados a través del operador booleano "AND". El análisis de dos datos se realizó de manera descriptiva, basándose en la lectura completa de los artículos, la categorización, la síntesis, la extracción y la e interpretación de dos datos. Resultado: la investigación demostró que la población utilizada em los estudios fue: 68,2% de estudios de desafío con seres humanos (HCS), 9,1% fueron investigaciones con población general, y 22,7% fueron de estudios con poblaciones específicas (mujeres embarazadas, negros, población encarcelada y niños), Conclusión: en este punto, la falta de consenso entre los estudios analizados es notoria, aunque la mayoría de los estudios argumentan a favor de realizar estudios de desafío, otros son inflexibles en cuanto a que las pruebas no tienen apoyo bioético.
