Paragraph 7 of the good practice guide states about patients “You must not unfairly discriminate against them by allowing your personal views to affect adversely your professional relationship with them or the treatment you provide or arrange. This includes your views about a patient's age, colour, culture, disability, ethnic or national origin, gender, lifestyle, marital or parental status, race, religion or beliefs, sex, sexual orientation, or social or economic status”
I am sure that health workers in the USA will have a similar ethical guideline, which these people are observing in spite of the circumstances.
