Let it be resolved that no acts of racism have a place in the medical system. Having said this, it is a stance of neutrality that ensures equal treatment for all, regardless of gender, race, or religion.
The medical community should confine itself to responding to clear ACTS of racism. It is only in these situations that clears facts can be discussed, and dealt with objectively.
When these acts are identified they should be dealt with systematically, and with transparency for the medical community and the public at large.
With all the criticism of our profession in recent times ( some of which is warranted), it is also appropriate to recognize that the vast majority of our healthcare workers continue to provide unbiased, neutral and compassionate care, day after day, year after year.
