Default Re: Editing this "long" article

Firstly, faced with a man at death's door, who remains anonymous, a hospital in Henan tried hard to save the man at the beginning, and then the hospital discharged (?) him and caused his death. In this incident, there is something wrong with some members of the hospital; the doctors concerned have broken the ethics of their profession.Everyone's life is unique. The right of survival is heaven-sent. Anyone, especially a doctor should be in awe of the sanctity of a life. The third item of China's Bylaws of Medical Organization Management explicitly stipulates that the tenet for a medical organization is to relieve the pain and save the lives of its patients and to serve people for their health. 'Mercy','Kindheartedness', 'Humanitarianism' and 'To save life' are the absolute laws for doctors, and the bottom line of their profession. The term 'White Angel' which reflected a highly moral evaluation has now been darkened gradually by public opinions, even been faded up as "A wolf with white coat" (for short as "White Wolf"). Basically, that is because the doctors have passed the bottom line.
