I swear to fulfill, to the best of my ability and judgment, this covenant:

I will apply, for the benefit of the sick, all measures [that] are required. … I will not be ashamed to say “I know not,” nor will I fail to call in my colleagues when the skills of another are needed for a patient’s recovery.
I will remember that I do not treat a fever chart, a cancerous growth, but a sick human being whose illness may affect the person’s family and economic stability. My responsibility includes these related problems, if I am to care adequately for the sick.

The various ways in which COVID-19 affects the body has made it difficult to find effective treatments, but now scientists think they ve figured out why - it s actually a vascular disease.
That s one which primarily affects blood vessels, in particular endothelial cells, which line the vessels interior. A lot of people think of it as a respiratory disease, but it s really a vascular disease, said Uri Manor, co-author of a new study into how COVID-19 attacks the body. That could explain why some people have strokes, and why some people have issues in other parts of the body. The commonality between them is that they all have vascular underpinnings.
