B. whether or not the United States should help Liberia’s Ebola crisis

Answer 1

An example of a regional bioethical decision is whether or not the United States should help Liberia’s Ebola crisis.

Explanation:

• When there are human ethics involved in a decision that is made or is to be made, it obviously becomes an ethical decision. Through the decision of the United States to help Liberia fight the Ebola crisis, the strength of the ethics possessed by the United States government would be exhibited.
• When an ethical decision of spending one's resources and time on a biological crisis prevalent in a specific region (sometimes other than the region in our own country) is made, it is referred to as a regional bioethical decision.
