    Don’t medical personnel have to take a Hippocratic oath? And doesn’t that supersede changing laws?

    I suppose in real life, cash is king, and morality is decided by the amount of digits in your bank account.

      Sort of. We’re already seeing it with abortions; doctors are doing the best they can to give people necessary care, while also trying to not violate the law.

      This has already resulted in deaths.

      And honestly I don’t blame them. Even if they break the law to save one life, they can’t treat anyone when they’re jailed.
