“Many people appear to conflate interventions to prevent harm in the sick with interventions in the healthy. For someone who is in immediate danger, attempts to minimise harm can come with a risk. For someone who is not in danger, great care must be taken not to cause unnecessary harm. For example, rugby tackling a granny to the ground could cause terrible harm but would be justified if it prevented her stepping into the path of an oncoming car she had not seen.”
