The request was to be exempt from criminal punishment if there was no intent or gross negligence.
In other words… when a patient suffers a medical accident, the doctor in charge of the patient should not be criminally punished if the problem was unintentional or a minor mistake.
So what’s the problem with this…
Because it is very difficult for patients or families without medical knowledge to prove a doctor’s intent or gross negligence, there is no way to punish a doctor for death or physical damage caused by a doctor’s intent or wrong judgment…
Since doctors are opposed to installing CCTV in the operating room, it will be even more difficult to prove…
For example, even if the doctor who caused the death of singer Shin Hae-cheol was grossly negligent in his intent and surgical method, if the patient cannot prove it, he will not be prosecuted and there will be no way to punish him…
In short, it would be legally recognizing the Cheonryongin, an outlaw group that cannot punish doctors even if they commit murder.
Looking at the behavior of medical professionals who have shown extreme disregard for life, the demand for immunity from criminal punishment is just appalling…
