Part I of this seminar in ethics reviewed the participation of German physicians and the German medical establishment in carrying out Nazi policies and listed eight moral failures that could be attributed to doctors during the dark period of history known as the Holocaust. The collective acts that occurred during this period have, arguably, become a benchmark for abject ethical collapse on the part of mankind. Part II contemplates a variety of contemporary issues through the prism of the Holocaust. This article reviews and categorizes ethical pitfalls encountered by physicians during the Nazi era and examines them in relationship to several current issues. It also focuses on ethical concerns and challenges that confront contemporary emergency practitioners, some of which have parallels, though certainly not direct comparators, in the Nazi era.
本次伦理学研讨会的第一部分回顾了德国医生和德国医学界在推行纳粹政策中的参与情况，并列举了在被称为大屠杀的那段黑暗历史时期可归咎于医生的八项道德失范行为。可以说，这一时期发生的集体行为已成为人类道德彻底崩溃的一个基准。第二部分通过大屠杀这一视角思考了各种当代问题。本文回顾并分类了纳粹时代医生所面临的道德陷阱，并结合若干当前问题对其进行审视。它还聚焦于当代急诊从业者所面临的伦理问题和挑战，其中一些在纳粹时代虽无直接可比之处，但存在相似之处。
