    Because the results of malpractice only kill, maim, or injure one person at a time.

    In aviation, however, the consequences are much more visible; so commercial pilots have regulated limits to flight duty.

    E: What I mean to say is I am not ok with this, but what happens is it’s easier for politicians to ignore. It should not be this way, and the current practice of ridiculous hours for the medical profession is properly fucked. Aviation has flight duty limits precisely because it has affected so many at once. In the industry they say that the regulations are “written in blood”.
