News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
Not sure how doctors can willingly comply with this shit. Seems antithetical to the Hippocratic oath.
It's the sort of systematic coldness that comes with procedure. Like even at that last place where she got to the ICU, the nurse "insisted on two ultrasounds to confirm fetal demise". So clearly the hospital has tried making some "reasonable" procedure, and the nurse wanting to confirm thought "we'll just quickly get this out of the way" or something.
It's horrible seeing politics and especially religious political views causing such regression in our modern age where it's completely needless.
It's the fear of losing everything that gives these people pause. I hope I'd do better in that situation, but I don't know what it's like to face losing everything you worked for in your life as well as your freedom.
The people to blame are the monsters who created these laws.
If you preform the needed procedures your a felon, subject to hundreds of thousands in fines and multiple years of jail. While clearly the net moral shing to do is save the life, its a stupid choice to put on anyone. The laws are evil and so are its supporters
Yeah, it is. And then they think they can afford the thing theyre doing, because they don't see the sum of all of the others doing the same to the patient.
I've experienced something... similar. Not on the same scale, but still.
The banality of evil.
Those doctors are cowards. They can't jail ALL the doctors, it would be a disaster. They need a union or something. I don't know ANYTHING is better than letting kids die!
Here is the oath, so it's iffy. They have no problem with charging exorbitant costs, financially, physically and emotionally, for the training, though.
Pretty simple when the alternative is prison
they justify by saying they can do more good outside a jail. Possibly true. Possible jails need more doctors.
