The United Kingdom prevails in a state of controversy, due to the government's health authorities' demands for a legislative amendment to protect doctors from legal prosecutions regarding decisions to treat the Corona virus taken under the pressures of the epidemic, including unlawful killing in circumstances beyond their control, "according to the British newspaper, Daily Mail.
British Health Minister Matt Hancock said that there will be no immediate change in the law to protect doctors from legal action regarding decisions to treat the Corona virus taken under the pressures of the epidemic, because doctors have not yet been forced to take such critical decisions and we have not seen cases that raise concerns.
Hancock made it clear that his country is not in a situation in which doctors must make these types of options, expressing his hope that it will not face this situation and that everyone can get the treatment they deserve.
It is worth noting that the British Minister of Health warned of a medical and moral catastrophe, as “doctors and nurses can be forced to choose patients who will be treated, who will live and who will die, which is consistent with the warning of senior medical officials that there is a material risk of exhausting medical teams from the increase in numbers. Coronavirus patients with mutations of the new strain within weeks, doctors are concerned that they are not only facing their position in the position but also that they may later be at risk of a criminal investigation by the police.
Health groups, including the British Medical Association, had witnessed claims to the government that there was no legal protection for cases related to Corona.
