Ethical Telemedicine for Honduras in times of COVID-19

In Honduras and in the rest of the world, we are going through a public health challenge due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, the need to implement telehealth has arisen, considering the deontological and ethical principles that govern the medical profession. It is important to break paradigms in the incorporation of information and communication technologies in health systems. We must expand our vision for the benefit of people's health, taking into account that it is and will always be, appropriate and unavoidable to question the innovations, to analyze and reflect on the ethical and legal aspects of their implementation and guarantee that what is implemented represents a direct benefit for the users. From this approach, it was reflected on the need to implement an ethical telemedicine, humanistic, whose main purpose is to preserve life, confidentiality, patient safety, as well as the quality and continuity of medical care.
