Anybody who is not monogamous, gay or straight, would have to wait. Garrett-Pate would gladly fill this out.
this would help create equality but would it limit possible donors.

GARRETT-PATE: I potentially have something that could at least help someone recover, prevent someone from dying, in me. And yet simply because I am gay, I can't do anything with it.
anyone else wondering how they would know he is gay. Is there a vetting process that goes into drawing blood. If we are discussing HIV could he get tested so he could give blood. I understand that this does not tackle the inherit outdated nature of this conversation.

The Covid-19 response has already brought about substantial financial hardship for many families, and not having the money to support a child (or an additional child) is a leading reason that women choose to have an abortion.5 Finally, quarantine and shelter-in-place orders have increased intimate partner violence, which sometimes includes sexual coercion and assault that may result in unplanned pregnancies.
These outside the context of abortion are concerning but when parallelled with limiting access to abortion that is a right fear of lack of liberty for women. This in a time where everyone has been stripped of what used to be common liberties.

Governors in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Oklahoma have ordered or supported the cessation of both medication and surgical abortion, while governors in other states have directed that surgical abortion alone must stop. (“Medication abortion” uses pills to end pregnancy in the first trimester; “surgical abortion” includes a variety of procedures at various stages of pregnancy.)
Mostly southern states, good excuse to remove access to abortions.

But the “silver standard” is readily available without a prescription. In Mexico, miso is sold over the counter as an ulcer medication (in the U.S., it’s only available with a prescription) creating the perfect conditions for black-market sales in the United States. And while no abortion clinics remain in the Valley, the Mexican town of Reynosa is just across the nearby border. There, miso can be bought in bulk at Mexican pharmacies and snuck back over the border into Texas, where it’s sold undercover at sprawling flea markets like the one I’m searching in today.
It is interesting how this pill is talked about in a way that is so taboo. This illustrates the fine line that many have to walk when discussing the terms of a diy abortion.

In Brazil, as in many parts of the world, Catholicism dominates the abortion debate. Like adultery and murder, it was a mortal sin, worthy of damnation to hell and, according to the country’s 1940 Penal Code, a crime against life. Despairing Brazilian women with unwanted pregnancies resorted to drastic and dangerous measures. They listened to old wives tails, ramming sharp objects into their uteruses and guzzling drug cocktails, and visiting clandestine, unsafe abortion clinics
If the idea is to protect life murder of any kind then at would point are these lengths that women go to to abbort their child just as sinful as the act of abbortion.

Ken Paxton, Texas’ attorney general, said, “The court is becoming a default medical board for the nation, with no deference being given to state law.”

I swear by Apollo Physician and Asclepius and Hygieia and Panaceia and all the gods and goddesses, making them my witnesses, that I will fulfill according to my ability and judgment this oath and this covenant:

must be faced with great humbleness and awareness of my own frailty. Above all, I must not play at God.
there have been a multitude of people that have broken this clause in the case of murdering elderly patients or people on life support. Playing god believing that they are putting people out of their missary.
-
oath's pagan origins and moral cast make it antithetical to beliefs held by Christians, Jews, and Muslims.
religion and politics always seem to get in the way of a problem questions and answers that have nothing to do with it.

the realities of a medical world that has witnessed huge scientific, economic, political, and social changes, a world of legalized abortion, physician-assisted suicide, and pestilences unheard of in Hippocrates' time.

According to a 1993* survey of 150 U.S. and Canadian medical schools, for example, only 14 percent of modern oaths prohibit euthanasia, 11 percent hold convenant with a deity, 8 percent foreswear abortion, and a mere 3 percent forbid sexual contact with patients
seriously 3 percent sexual contact that is absurd. Made me think about this specific thing as my friend works in a nursing home and elderly abuse is well uncommon but possible. Seems crazy that these things wouldn't be changed with time.

treat the sick to the best of one's ability, preserve patient privacy, teach the secrets of medicine to the next generation, and so on. "The Oath of Hippocrates," holds the American Medical Association's Code of Medical Ethics (1996 edition), "has remained in Western civilization as an expression of ideal conduct for the physician."
seems kind of vague. I understand that these are values and just a layout.

A result of coercive researcher behavior, for instance, may be the patient's fear of loss of health care benefits or of retribution for refusing to participate.
Another example in an experiment that i learned of was that, the research was telling the subjects that the tests had to go on and that the program relied on it. In the sense of the vaccine the coercion could come in the for of if you don't do this people will die.

"look out" for their patients' interest, believing that certain researcher behaviors can persuade, manipulate, or coerce potential research subjects.
can we discuss this as being purposeful or by accident. Imagining a researcher of the covid vaccine attempting to create something to save lives. The passion their might subconsciously come out in a way that would coerce the patient to continue
-
diminished cognitive or other capacities, socioeconomic status, disease status, and the patient's family position as factors that may constrain prospective research subjects' ability to make voluntary decisions.
here it is, choice of candidates to increase the likelihood that they would want to participate in a study such as testing for the vaccine.
-
various recruitment and consent practices may undermine the possibility of informed voluntary consent.
making the implication that researchers might pick candidates that are in some way less able to voice their opinion or assert their voice. not sure if this is the case just reminded me of an experiment i was listening about.
