Perhaps never before in the last 2000 years or so were medical doctors more challenged to live up to this famous, ancient oath, then since the beginning of the 20th century.
Just to name a few challenges by keyword (no order or importance implied): radioactivity, ABC weapons, Holocaust, synthetic opioids, gender dysphoria, overmedicalization, capital punishment etc.
In my opinion: Too often, I observe that individual medical doctors even repeatedly and seriously fail to live up to their Hippocratic Oath!
