I'm all in favor of "social justice" in medicine by its conventional definition, but that's not even a particularly difficult problem. Universal medical systems already exist and function well all across the planet. Likewise, nobody's actually going to vote for Brave New World.

It really does seem like "social justice", in a bioethical context, simply isn't the True Rejection.
