Check your history; medical professionals are usually heavily involved in the torture state. Psychologists at Guantanamo, physicians keeping torture victims alive for South American dictatorships, etc. The Holocaust began with the slaughter of the disabled in Germany’s hospitals; the German medical profession overall were enthusiastic supporters of the Nazis.
Codes like the Hippocratic Oath and ethical review procedures don’t exist because the medical professions are stacked with exceptionally ethical people. They exist because medical professionals have an immense capacity to do harm, and a long history of making use of that opportunity.
