In response to protests in medical institutions, the Ethics Department of the Israeli Medical Association sent a letter to hospital directors regarding the treatment of Hamas militants. The letter emphasized that doctors have a duty to treat all patients, regardless of their identity or affiliation.
The primary consideration should be the patient’s health condition, rather than their background. The Ethics Department pointed out that this approach aligns with international conventions, declarations, and Israeli law. Despite the crimes committed by Hamas, doctors are obligated to provide necessary medical assistance to ensure that the legal system can bring them to justice.
The letter serves as a reminder to healthcare professionals that their duty to treat patients, even under difficult circumstances, is a fundamental ethical principle that must be upheld. By upholding these standards, doctors can maintain the integrity of the medical profession and ensure that patient care remains a top priority.
