Don't they take the Hippocratic oath in Ireland? : Wed Nov 14, 2012 8:41 pm  

Woman dies after abortion request 'refused' at Galway hospital. Yet another example of the malign influence of the Catholic Church?

This thread will just go off into an argument about abortion so I will leave you guys to it.

But on this case its important to establish the medical facts first into the cause of her death. All we have here is that her husband is "sure" that being refused abortion contributed to her death. Maybe it caused her a lot of distress.....but causing her death is something different.

I am not sure exactly who takes the Hippocratic oath, or if it is some sort of voluntary thing.

2 of my family a doctors, they have never taken it.

My girlfriend is a medical student, she has never taken it.

You may also be surprised to learn that the Royal Navy do not swear allegiance to the Queen.

I doubt the queen would ever seriously consider the Royal Navy if she ever wanted an abortion
