So much for the Hippocratic Oath.



btw Leave it to news to get it wrong. It's 74% of the group they asked (2400), and of those they didn't all say they were going to quit.

The Hippocratic Oath does not imply that medical professionals can be made slaves to the State.

What does the oath have to do with it? Not a damn thing.....

However Buzz, there is a big difference between a VCR camera and a fiber optic camera, when it comes to a colonoscopy....oath or knot....

The oath has a lot to do with it assclown, and money is never mentioned in it.

It says, in so many words, that a doctor must conduct themselves with extraordinary professionalism. It does not say free shit for ex truck drivers.

It appears you confirm what I stated before, that you think Doctors are obligated to practice. Thank you...

The doctors pledged the oath.

Doesn't matter what I believe, and you confirmed nothing.
