Okay, Let's Have A Little Chat About Priorities...
According to the U.K.'s Daily Telegraph, female workers are ignoring Britain's Department of Health rules requiring medics to be "bare below the elbow" because they consider showing any skin — outside the hands and face — immodest.Fine. You're religion comes first for you. Whatever. But, if you work in a medical profession my health comes before your faith. You obviously do not need to be working in medicine if you cannot follow simple rules of hygiene.
The guidelines were put into place to stave off the spread of infectious killer bugs like MRSA and Clostridium difficile, which have been implicated in the deaths of hundreds of hospital patients, according to the paper.
Hygiene experts said the standard should hold for all workers— even if it goes against their religion.
Knowing this, wouldn't it be prudent to know the religion of the medical professional who is treating you so that you could refuse treatment from them, and ask for someone who can wash their hands?
