Q:

Is it wrong for doctors to lie about their patients' illnesses? Aren't doctors just like any other people we hire to do a job for us? Surely, we would not tolerate not being told the truth about the condition of our automobile from the mechanic we hired to fix it, or the condition of our roof from the carpenter we employed to repair it. Just as these workers would be guilty of violating their good faith contracts with us if they were to do this, doctors who lie to their patients about their illnesses violate these contracts as well, and this is clearly wrong.

 

The conclusion of the argument is best expressed by which of the following?

A) Doctors are just hired workers like mechanics and ...........carpenters. B) It is wrong for doctors to lie about their patients' ...........illnesses.
C) Both A and B D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) It is wrong for doctors to lie about their patients' ...........illnesses.
