- hga 12y agoHe was training to be a doctor. One of those who takes the Hippocratic Oath to essentially "First do no harm". I expect more from doctors (and nurses; my mom was an RN, and I was close to some doctors for social and business reasons when I was in middle and high school). It's the false affidavit that makes this crystal clear to me. He knew the situation was a lot worse than he stated in it---and note that at least as this article is framed, he allowed himself to be silenced.
- cowardlydragon 12y agoYou mom is an RN, which means she has a front row seat to modern medicine's comprehensive attempt to cut costs and hide its reduced level of care... ... yet she still goes to work, doesn't she, mr moral absolutist?
- hga 12y agoReread my posting: "my mom was an RN" She quit that career when she was pregnant with me, the eldest of 4, in 1960. My relationship with those doctors ended when I went to college in 1979, and my family transitioned out of that business in the early '80s. So except what we read, and learn from and experience with our doctors, we're as out of touch with the modern medical scene. For that matter, since I'm disabled, and my parents are old, we're all on Medicare, which has it's own weird rules. So, no front row seat. I would say "nice try", except for the epic failure in reading comprehension in your rush to DISQUALIFY me.
- FireBeyond 12y agoMany / most doctors don't take the Hippocratic Oath. Amongst other things, the Oath forbids surgery. A large number of doctors don't take -any- oath, as such.
