Female Muslim medics 'disobey hygiene rules'
Telegraph.co.uk ^ | Feb 3 08 | Julie Henry and Laura Donnelly

Muslim medical students are refusing to obey hygiene rules brought in to stop the spread of deadly superbugs, because they say it is against their religion.

Women training in several hospitals in England have raised objections to removing their arm coverings in theatre and to rolling up their sleeves when washing their hands, because it is regarded as immodest in Islam.

Aptly said. Fire the rest of their germ-ridden carcasses as well. Get them out of here; keep them out of here.

It they don’t like living in the civilized world, they are free to leave. They can go practice what they call medicine in their own filthy third world hellholes and let the rest of the world progress.

Of course, it’s not unheard of for modesty to take priority over human lives for them. If they value it so little, why the heck to they want to become doctors?.

All this is is another testing of the waters. Every once in a while they test just to see how far they can push us. Every time we cave, it shows them that they are just that much closer to takeover; the time is almost ripe.

I’m sure they need doctors in Turdistan. Send ‘em back there.

There’s an Islamic Medical Association?
That must be a truly scientific group. Muzzie logic in action.

Muslims give reasons they emigrated to the West to learn Western medicine, but don’t choose to practice it. More signs that the pretext for emigrating is just a front.

You know, in Egypt, they really do still have belly dancing; this is so much the opposite.

I know an Egyptian and when FIT TV has that show Shimmy about belly dancing, I thought, oh, they still don’t do that over there but indeed, he told me they still do.

It’s the exact opposite of this other story.

What? They wash their stomachs to prevent the spread of infection?

“CONTROLLING dangerous infections such as MRSA and Clostridium difficile is a top priority for NHS workers.”
Feb 2 2008 by Andrew Baldwin, Huddersfield Daily Examiner

COMMENT SNIPPET: “But irrespective of where the blame lies, the battle is on to curb the bugs.

Everyone has a part to play, visitors as well as hospital staff.

We all must observe hospital hygiene regulations as closely as possible.

Using antibacterial hand gel before entering a ward should become compulsory.”

I wouldn’t have a problem with an Islamic Medical Assn. if they followed federal health codes and didn’t seek to modify western medicine to adapt to Islamic law.

They won’t wash their hands properly in a hospital, but they insist on washing their feet in airport sinks.

This is roughly equivalent to the law-school example of the blind diamond cutter.

Fire them.
