Analizzare la situazione dell'etica medica in Messico aiuta a comprendere la problematica dei paesi in via di sviluppo. Si sente anche in essi il pericolo dell' "utilitarismo economico" in medicina, e la "disumanizzazione" della pratica medica. Non mancano in Messico leggi e disposizioni che mirano a regolare la pratica medica nelle diverse aree. Ma si riscontrano problemi che meritano attenta riflessione: inadeguata distribuzione delle risorse per l'investigazione, sterilizzazione di massa senza il consenso informato, come metodo di controllo delle nascite, incertezze in molti medici nel modo di trattare il paziente terminale dovute a numerosi tabù sulla morte, insufficiente distribuzione delle risorse necessarie per i trapianti di organi, programmi di prevenzione contro l'AIDS puntati esclusivamente sulla promozione dell'uso del condom, ecc. Occorre dunque una seria formazione etica e umanistica dei medici. D'altra parte però sono pochissime le facoltà mediche del paese che includono l'etica nei loro programmi di insegnamento. E' urgente riempire questa lacuna.
