All lives matter. Anti-vaxxers. Russians. Who will it be next year? Next month? Manufacturing enemies worthy of inhumane treatment is easy with information control and psychological warfare. The masses move as one where and how they're told.

These are the same people who got a thrill from the mob scapegoating and exiling of the unvaccinated. They have just transferred the same sentiment onto Russia.

This is a fundamental violation of the Geneva Conventions and of the Hippocratic Oath, which some of us still take seriously. A physician is ethically obligated to treat any patient who needs care, regardless of the religion, ethnicity, political views, etc. They are all human and deserving of impartial and compassionate medical care.

when professionals act like children, all trust in their professional ability goes out the window

That's what a German doctor would say back in 1942 about jews

Considering medical error is the third leading cause of death (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27143499/), perhaps these virtue-signaling Hippocritical Oathers are doing the presently defined enemy (unvaxxed, Russians, Belarusians, et al) a favor. In any case, they've made it easier for us to identify the frauds.

Shut up and practice medicine- is my advice- and I am a physician. I am utterly disgusted with my peers.

I wonder if these doctors understand that Putin is an autocrat who doesn't take a poll of all Russian citizens before he acts.

This is scary. As a Doctor I have always prioritised patients by the degree of urgency of their condition and not on their ethnicity, colour, sex etc. I truly believe these Doctors should be removed from the medical register in Germany.

No doctor has ever asked me about my citizenship. Do you now have to bring your passport when you go to the hospital?

There appears to be a group of angry folks who keep needing to direct this simmering aggression to another selected group every several months. First (here in the US particularly), it was Trump, then it was lockdown extremists (think staying home, wiping down groceries), then vaccination/mask extremists, now Russia.

What I find particularly interesting is the corporations who go along with this. As someone else on another blog pointed out, those corporations that are freezing out their holdings in Russia (McDonalds, luxury goods, banking), are not only opening new pathways between China and Russia, they are also practically begging Russia to nationalize their assets. That can also be applied to these dunderhead doctors. How many patients come from Russian descent? Honestly, when will this stupidity end?

An apology isn't good enough when we are dealing with people's lives.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, at a minimum, these doctors need to be disciplined by their oversight body. Ideally, they would either be prohibited from practicing medicine for a specified time or they would be stripped of their license all together.

Nothing will change until we hold people like this accountable and send a message to any other zealots who want to discriminate.

Well, I was going to say 'if I ever found myself in Munich, and in need of anaethesia, I would just drink some good Russian Vodka, and it would be fine'. But I hear that the Vodka maybe unavailable due to sanctions. Not sure I want to use these clown-anthaethesiologists, it may not be as safe. Maybe some Rum? Is that okay in Munich?

Jordan Peterson warned for the past few years about how the worst atrocities throughout history are based on the concept of collective guilt. For anyone not plugged into the media's programming, it feels like we are witness to a horrible monster reemerging from the depths.

Anything that keeps German doctors away from gas can't be bad.
