Mandatory HIV Testing
The American Medical Association's House of Delegates said that mandatory testing of pregnant women would not be good policy ('AMA Briefs: HIV Testing," Jan. 1, 2002, p. 3).
Why? Eighty percent of newborns could be spared being HIV positive if they were treated prenatally Mandatory testing is not politically correct, medical organizations would say. That's wonderful. Death for the kids, as long as we are in the mainstream. Too bad. I thought physicians were supposed to protect patients, especially the innocent ones.
The corruption of our social morals continues unabated.
