There was a topic on KGO talk radio this morning that I found rather fascinating.
Apparently doctors of Muslim faith in the European Union, under the Doctors Association tests and courses required to earn their right to practice in European countries, refuse to learn any ailments that deal with alcohol or sexually transmitted diseases. They will not treat or even discuss these topics, and the reason is that it is against their religious beliefs.
Some Muslim doctors have also refused to examine and therefore treat persons of the opposite sex (even with their clothes on...).
To recap, will not test:
-Alcohol or alcoholism
-STD's
-Persons of the opposite sex
My question is; should the European Doctors Association give these Muslim undergraduates the right to practice if they refuse the aforementioned ideas and practices? Should they become working doctors, or be told to seek another profession?
