Unless the perpetrator actually intended to kill the patient, then you're talking about mistakes. And since a mistake is something you never intended to do in the first place, how is putting someone in jail going to prevent future mistakes from happening?,

You can sue the hell out of everyone involved, and the medical professional can lose their license. But criminal sanctions are going to make patients less safe in the end as the professionals now are incentivized to cover up rather than disclose immediately any mistakes.

Are you kidding me?

You don’t think they are currently incentivized to cover up mistakes that kill or injure someone?

And these aren’t just “mistakes”. Like forgot napkins in the take out bag. These mistakes END PEOPLES LIVES. These are supposed to be top professionals we are all supposed to trust with our lives.

God you frigging people.
