Abstract
"A short while ago, interventions were carried out by doctors (presumably under 'orders' from 'higher authorities') on persons competent to make decisions despite their protests. This raises the following issue: What does a medical practitioner do when the dictates of 'employers'/' State' conflict with the principles of medical ethics?"
