Janet A. Jokela, an infectious disease physician, discusses her article, "Doctors, grounded in our oath, must act now more than ever," reflecting on the physician's solemn commitment to patient care, integrity, and advocacy. With increasing challenges to public health institutions like the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and World Health Organization (WHO), physicians must decide how to uphold their oath amid political and systemic disruptions. The conversation explores the role of medical professionals in defending science, advocating for patients, and maintaining ethical standards in health care. Listeners will gain insights into actionable steps, from professional advocacy to public communication, that reinforce the vital responsibility physicians carry both inside and outside the clinical setting.
