Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin had surgery after a prostate cancer diagnosis, officials said Tuesday, disclosing for the first time what condition led to medical complications and his lengthy hospitalization.
We don't live in a Nazi medical experiment camp, if the patient is mentally sound, they can elect or deny a y medical treatment. So yeah, it's all elective if you're awake.
Fine. But not notifying the President as a cabinet official that you’ll be out of reach in the ICU becomes, at that point, a serious problem for the government. He should resign.
I don't agree about resigning. But that's not what I was talking about. He didn't want the public to know what he was dealing with and now the entirety of the world knows. Medical privacy is a right.
No one in the military can have surgery and not tell anyone and he should be held to the same standard. He mishandled the entire situation and should resign.
