It’s a sign of ordtak

en It’s a sign of troubled times when the concept of “pressure” becomes an acceptable excuse for ethical shortcuts and moral shortcomings.

our codes of ethics demand that we treat every person equally, without regard
to race or ethnic background. This ethical obligation is a direct outgrowth
of the horrors of Nazi medicine.
