From a lefty I know..."Yeah, it's murder, but that's okay as long as I view the victim as an inconvenience."

I don't think they even understand what the hippocratic oath entails
Doctors don’t even know what it entails anymore. They eagerly ignore it so long as they get enough kickbacks from the pharmaceutical companies to prescribe snake oil or if the government even jokingly tells them to ignore it.
They only know the hypocritic oath.
Medical schools under the thrall of social justice have revised the H.O. according to a version written in 1964 by (no kidding) a guy named Louis Lasagna that includes this gem:
"If it is given me to save a life, all thanks. But it may also be within my power to take a life; this awesome responsibility must be faced with great humbleness and awareness of my own frailty. Above all, I must not play at God."
I suppose it's the abortion/euthanasia loophole.
Considering the original Hippocratic oath specifically prohibits giving women abortions, I’d argue most Doctors don’t understand the Hippocratic oath.
