Let's explore the AMA Code of Ethics and see how the expectations for the ethical practice of medicine can help us
My Board accused me of breaching these standards, but had to remove those charges as well before the hearing. My comments about each principle are in italics.
AMA CODE OF MEDICAL ETHICS 2001 (and still in effect)
AMA PRINCIPLES OF MEDICAL ETHICS∗
Preamble
The medical profession has long subscribed to a body of ethical statements developed primarily for the benefit of the patient. As a member of this profession, a physician must recognize responsibility to patients first and foremost, as well as to society, to other health professionals, and to self. The following Principles adopted by the American Medical Association are not laws, but standards of conduct that
define the essentials of honorable behavior for the physician.
Principles of medical ethics
I. A physician shall be dedicated to providing competent medical care, with compassion and respect for human dignity and rights.—in other words, upholding bodily autonomy and informed consent, providing adequate information to patients and issuing appropriate vaccine or mask waivers
II. A physician shall uphold the standards of professionalism, be honest in all professional interactions, and strive to report physicians deficient in character or competence, or engaging in fraud or deception, to appropriate entities.—my board tried to use this one against me, but forgot that principle #8 required me to tell a white lie to save the life of a patient. Boards are routinely claiming that doctors who speak out are unprofessional, but this is a spurious claim as the standards for professionalism have nothing to do with public speech.
III. A physician shall respect the law and also recognize a responsibility to seek changes in those requirements which are contrary to the best interests of the patient.—The boards forget this one as well, since I and many others have attempted to change the current harmful requirements.
IV. A physician shall respect the rights of patients, colleagues, and other health professionals, and shall safeguard patient confidences and privacy within the constraints of the law. —Why would we support sanitary passports that put our patients’ medical information into an app, which they must produce to gain access to shops and services?
V. A physician shall continue to study, apply, and advance scientific knowledge, maintain a commitment to medical education, make relevant information available to patients, colleagues, and the public, obtain consultation, and use the talents of other health professionals when indicated.—Yet they are trying to punish us for advancing scientific knowledge about the proper treatment and prophylaxis of coronaviruses.
VI. A physician shall, in the provision of appropriate patient care, except in emergencies, be free to choose whom to serve, with whom to associate , and the environment in which to provide medical care.—Possibly this could be construed as stating that the doctor has no obligation to offer only government-instigated rules for care.
VII. A physician shall recognize a responsibility to participate in activities contributing to the improvement of the community and the betterment of public health.—Speaking out and writing to educate the public is exactly what the doctors being prosecuted were doing.
VIII. A physician shall, while caring for a patient, regard responsibility to the patient as paramount.—which is exactly what we were doing.
IX. A physician shall support access to medical care for all people.—This is why I kept my charges for COVID care so low, as I did not want to deprive anyone of the ability to get early treatment for a life-threatening illness.

This is very useful information about which to remind people. I've shared it with others and told them to set it aside for possible use in the future.
I am an attorney in California who has been doing pro bono work since 2020 related to this conspiracy by the technocrats to control the world's population, and have used the Code of Ethics in some letters I wrote for people who were being told they had to submit to the injections in order to get some benefit, like a nursing student being able to do clinical work without being vaxxed, and a resident alien being told he could not remain without being vaxxed.
I use not only the Code of Ethics, but the law, which I've included at the bottom of my e-mails, and will include here, too.
I really liked Dr. Nass's comments in 2015 as testimony before the Senate Health & welfare Committee. Notice that her comments and material support what my legal argument includes, that EACH medical intervention -- injections, masks, procedures, etc., -- are ALL human medical experiments. And therefore it is illegal. under the laws referenced at the bottom of my comment, to pressure anyone participate in ANY medical intervention. Here are her 2015 comments:

Here is my legal analysis:
Congress ratified the previously signed International Treaty on Civil and Political Rights ("the ICCPR") in 1992. Under the U.S. Constitution, that ratification made the ICCPR "the law of the land," applicable to every state, every political subdivision, and to the federal government, its subdivisions, and its President. Thus, the ICCPR (and the Nuremberg Code which it contains) also apply to anyone who EVER took an oath to support the American Constitution, which means that these laws apply to the military, lawyers, judges, and to many others.
The Nuremberg Code is Article 7 of the ICCPR. This makes it unlawful for anyone to pressure anyone, in any way, to take part in a human medical experiment.
ALL vaccines, old or new, as well as all medicines and treatments, not just the experimental mRNA vaccines, or other experimental treatments, are a human medical experiment for each person, as expressed by the formula, "N = 1," meaning an experiment with just one subject.
Thus, these recent one-size-for-all "mandates" that order everyone to be vaccinated, to wear masks regardless of whether they are coughing or sneezing, are clear violations of the ICCPR and the Nuremberg Code. They are also violations of the individual rights reserved to all Americans by the individuals who created the Constitution, in which they provided that the individual states and the central, federal government, were given LIMITED rights, and provided that all other not specified rights, whether enumerated or not, were reserved to them and to us, the individual human beings who are their descendants.
Read the Constitution, and you will see that neither the states nor the federal government were given the right to make health or medical decisions for individuals. That is the basis for the concept that people's personal matters are private matters, not public matters, and hence not the subject for governmental control.
If individuals, not governments, have the right to control personal matters, then another way of expressing that is to say that individuals have a right to privacy. That is why, although the word "privacy" does not appear in the Constitution, such a right is implicit in a document that places the rights of individuals outside and beyond the Constitutional power of control given by we, The People, to the state and central governments that we, the People, created.
Only leaders who are violating their oaths ignore laws that are designed to protect their followers' individual rights. Only individuals who do not support the Constitution support such leaders.
These codes were thrown out the window to push the falsely inflated covid narrative and its deadly toxins. Amazing how the entire medical establishment is in perfect lockstep regarding these narratives, tolerating no dissent or data that opposes them. Such perfect orchestration can only be achieved by a centralized agency dictating the operation. That agency is the globalist alliance between the WEF, Pharma, Rockefeller Foundation, Rothschild Foundation, Gates Foundation and WHO. This globalist alliance is the conductor of the entire covid/vaccine operation. And hospitals, universities, government and medical agencies, politicians, medical boards are playing the globalists' music.
