At a recent Highland meeting in Utah, Kirk Moore passionately addressed concerns surrounding medical ethics and patient care, particularly in relation to mRNA injections. Moore, a physician, expressed frustration over the treatment of patients who choose not to receive vaccinations, arguing that they are often marginalized in healthcare settings.
Moore emphasized the importance of treating patients with dignity, regardless of their medical choices. He criticized the prevailing attitude among some healthcare professionals who prioritize vaccination status over the immediate needs of patients. "When you're dying and you can't breathe... oh, well that's when we can treat you," he lamented, highlighting a troubling trend in healthcare where patients are penalized for their choices.
He also referenced the Hippocratic Oath, underscoring his commitment to "first do no harm." Moore believes that his actions align with this principle, as he strives to provide care that his patients request, regardless of external pressures. He pointed out that informed consent is a fundamental expectation from patients, and he has taken steps to advocate for changes in the legal system to better align with ethical medical practices.
Moore raised alarms about recent legislation in California, which could penalize physicians for not adhering to government-sanctioned narratives regarding medical treatments. He argued that such laws threaten the integrity of medical practice and the physician-patient relationship, stating, "If you tell them... but it doesn't abide by what the government says, the government can come after you."
The meeting underscored a growing divide in healthcare, as Moore called for a return to compassionate care that respects patient autonomy. As discussions around mRNA injections and medical ethics continue, Moore's advocacy highlights the need for a more humane approach to patient treatment in Utah and beyond.
