What kind of doctor lets distant police stop them from saving someone? I don't let the police change my behavior for even trivial stuff!
Ones who don't want to throw away their ability to keep practicing medicine.
It's not just the threat of police, it's also them losing their license and ability to be insured and the possibility of getting multi million dollar lawsuits to go along with it legally being the same as murder if a doctor gives any treatment for someone having a miscarriage
The type who have state approved political informants reviewing their medical notes and are looking to take away their professional registration and entire career (plus possible prison sentences) on the basis of wildly vague and open to interpretation law because Yay Jesus.
