Cause fuck them! There’s our place…
get the good people out of america then nuke the fucking place. This is unthinkable. Hippocratic oath, anyone?
Can they also provide necessary procedures if it is required by their morals?
This is abhorent, but heat me out: part of me kinda likes this. I’d rather know immediately if a doctor doesn’t want to treat me so that I can find one that does want to.
Can you imagine having darker skin color and being assigned to be treated by a doctor who cosplays KKK in his free time? I can’t imagine he’ll do the right thing, at worst he might outright try to make it worse or kill you. This at least gives you too the knowledge that your doctor will actually want to help you
Having said that, fuck Tennessee and fuck the united states of America
“I’d rather know immediately if a doctor doesn’t want to treat me so that I can find one that does want to”
Kind of hard to do if you’re in the ER with say an ectopic pregnancy in Buttfuck, TN and there’s one doctor on staff and if you’re not treated immediately you die.
freedom works well even when it is for the antagonist.
In other words, they’ll let lgbtq+ people, people of color, and women die…

Sad. Wish I could just leave for a sanctuary state, but I’m stuck there.
Same
If your morals compel you to deny care to someone, they are shitty morals, you are a shitty doctor, and you are a shitty human being.
This also implies that the denying doctor is ok with breaking an oath to do no harm.
Double edged sword. My morals won’t allow me to treat a Republican
… and lawyers.
A plain reading of the article suggests that it allows discrimination based on race, skin color, gender, and age. Of course we know that’s the point, doctors don’t want to treat minorities if they are racist pieces of s*** or otherwise bigoted, but what does the statute itself say?
The Bill of Rights is supposed to protect us against the government, but in some situations it can protect us against other people who are being discriminating f*** faces, but I have no idea what will happen now in Tennessee.
Can’t wait for a gay doctor to deny treatment for a bigot and all their heads explode.
(They’re heads never actually explode and this bothers me.)
or deny if they are christian or republican registered.
"I need to take your température. Here, put this in your mouth. "
* lights fuse *
* runs out of the office *
Or:
“Here, put this in your mouth”
“Whyszit tafte so fummy?”
" It’s a rectal thermometer"
This goes in your mouth, this goes in your ear, this goes in your butt… No, wait… THIS goes in your mouth…
You mean…out the toilet?
and the last one goes in your urethra
I was hoping it would be penis :(
Me every day 😩
Be the change you want to see in the world (in minecraft)
Applies to insurance companies too. Yikes.
it allows them auto deny, things like non-christians, but doctors can refuse to take INSURANCE so doctors have some leverage.
That’s not what the Hippocratic Oath says. I know it’s just smoke and mirrors, but that oath still means something. Any doctor who would disregard it should not be trusted with your health, and should not be practicing medicine at all.
And yet already, doctors have been letting women in Texas and other states die mid-complex-birth-trouble for fear of losing their license. The moral code of life, at least in America, is long gone in many states.
Fuck you for blaming doctors. They’re threatened with prison because of medieval maga laws.
Hippocratic oath, more like hypocritical oath amirite
And should be reported immediately. Blasted on the news.
Ah. Healthcare denied to ICE enforcers. I am alright with that.
You’re saving them money by automatically denying. Instead, bring them in and tell them to their face you don’t serve fascists, then charge them $800
I like the cut of your jib.
They don’t need it if the EMT arrives and they’re dead on sight.
It would be hilarious if doctors denied care to everybody who voted for this.
Hey American Doctors and Nurses, Canada is looking for great physicians to practice and contribute their talents to.
Stop wasting your life and time in fascist America. Canadas fucking fabulous and awesome!!

How about engineers? Pretty please?
I hear a bunch of European countries are hiring!
Any doctor that does this is a shitty fucking doctor.
It would violate their professional oaths, and yet, somewhere there’s an OB/GYN and an optometrist ready to fucking rumble
What weird morals do optometrists run into?
My optometrist just showed up on that MAGA businesses’s website, so IDK but I bet they have some ideas.
The same as other doctors: bigotry
Thankfully my optometrist is colorblind
So racist doctors are protected now?
So are doctors who won’t morally treat a police officers gunshot wounds.
I see this being repealed in record time.
I wish I was a doctor in Tennessee now, just so I could do shit like this.
apparently some red areas are so desperate they are willing to pay for out of state doctors, just to work in the state for few times a week, they can make bank too.
Oh sorry I meant I’m not even a doctor, let alone in Tennessee, haha.
My friend is though and recently got a $500k+ base pay with other incentives offer to go to Indiana - but they said no.
yea i heard doctors were earning around that, and more.
You dont get to be a conservative and an a qualified doctor, unless you want a doctor who just says the lord shall heal thy wounds and sends you on your way.
