Question:
- Hapless Hospital employs Dr. Frank Aterror, a surgeon who in the past has sexually assaulted female patients. Suppose that he sees a thousand patients a year, half of them female and has allegedly assaulted two women over five years, making the individual risk for an individual female patient 2/2500, or .0008, or .08%. Should every female be informed of the risk of sexual assault?
- Hapless Hospital has a staff surgeon, Dr. Rye, who is an alcoholic. He is an excellent surgeon when he is not impaired by drinking, but because he is a chronic alcoholic it is hard to predict when he may violate his aftercare (part of on going rehabilitation) and become impaired. Should Dr. Rye be required to disclose to patients that he is an alcoholic??
