On hospital and nursing home death protocols.

Medicine & HealthLeave a comment

A reader at Hana’s Substack suggested that health care workers would not have and do not commit intentional acts to harm patients, because they would have been and are concerned about losing their medical licenses.

My reply, expanded:

The HCWs licenses were and are on the line only to the extent they refused/refuse the orders to follow the death protocols, because the death protocols were and are covered by the PREP Act declarations, and the only liability vulnerability a HCW faces, during active PREP Act declarations, is not following the protocols.
