Patient Betrayal: The Corruption of Healthcare, Informed Consent and the Physician-Patient Relationship
The purpose of this study is: first, to review disciplinary threats made to healthcare professionals by their governing bodies in the US; and second, to review medical literature for complications related to the COVID-19 vaccines and data from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), particularly those related to pregnant women and women of reproductive age.
Aims and Scope
The World Medical Association (WMA) has developed the Declaration of Helsinki as a statement of ethical principles for medical research involving human subjects, including research on identifiable human material and data. The WMA encourages everyone who are involved in medical research involving human subjects to adopt these principles.
The Department of Medical Ethics adheres to the principles of WMA and publishes online, Open Access and stringently peer-reviewed original articles, reviews, opinions, short communications and case studies on all ethical aspects related to biomedical research and public health. The Department of Medical Ethics is an official wing of The Gazette of Medical Sciences.
The Department publishes papers aimed at all biomedical researchers and public health practitioners, and those who manage bioethics. It will also be of interest to anyone involved in providing global health policies, public health programs, scientific integrity, and professional ethics. We welcome papers bringing together ethical committee approaches and ethical operations both in research and with patients.
