Resumo

Objetivo: analisar as produções científicas que discorrem sobre a relação entre a bioética e a realização de testes de vacinas contra o vírus SARS-CoV-2. Metodologia: trata-se de uma revisão integrativa, onde o levantamento bibliográfico foi realizado nas bases de dados MEDLINE, SCIELO e BVS, através dos descritores “bioethics”, “COVID” e “vacinne” associados por meio do operador booleano “AND”. A análise dos dados foi realizada de forma descritiva com base na leitura integral dos artigos, categorização, síntese, extração e interpretação dos dados. Resultado: a pesquisa mostrou que a população utilizada nos estudos foram: 68,2% estudos de desafio com seres humanos (HCS), 9,1% tratavam-se de pesquisa com a população em geral e 22,7% de pesquisas com populações específicas (gestantes, negros, população encarcerada e crianças). Conclusão: nesse ponto é notório a falta de consenso entre os estudos analisados, embora a maior parte dos estudos argumentem em favor da realização dos estudos de desafio, outros são taxativos em afirmar que os testes não têm amparo bioético.
