These doctors should definitely not be allowed to work on anyone, no matter their skills and brains and talent and genius. Once the "unspoken rule" is that no matter how sick you are feeling, you're supposed to "push through" it and on doing all of your job whenever your job is literally holding the lives of people in your hands, that is so irresponsible.
The residents were even betting on who could hold on on going home sick a long, with the loser becoming the "swap monkey," where they have to swap any case or patient once the other residents ask with no exceptions. Case dangerous.
When residents are operating while nursing an IV of liquids and throwing up in their mouths over an open body, that's dangerous. But nonetheless, Murphy was mocked for leaving the OR after puking in her own mouth.
When doctors are forced to operate on someone's brain while half asleep as well as on the cusp of fainting, that's dangerous. But nonetheless, Derek was encouraged to do it anyway (he literally wound up in a hospital bed minutes later and Meredith had to do his big speech for him). When doctors have a "special power" and know they're decreasing with a debilitating sickness but still operate, that's dangerous. And yet Arizona happily continued with her day, handling patients and operations like normal.
The only person with the common sense to stay away from patients when he felt like he was decreasing with a sickness and to refuse to let other sick people around recovering babies was Shane, but he was mocked for doing this.
What is so wrong about caring concerning the health of your patients? Isn't that what doctors are meant to do? Let us get real, after watching "You Be Illin'" nobody would want to have surgeries done at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. These doctors are irresponsible, careless, dangerous and competitive in the wrong ways.
