I’m imagining police departments taking this same approach for 911 calls. “We have a Latin, late 20’s early 30’s, on foot. All units be on the lookout for a Latin”.
Sex data is still collected for the birth certificate, but they’re saying that it shouldn’t be on the public record because that’s a burden to the individual. Which is still dumb as all hell, but it’s more of an individual liberty/privacy issue rather than a scientific one.
Doctoring as a vocation isn’t in that business. Individual doctors, of course, should be free to have their own views.
The AMA afaik is basically a lobbying association. not to defend their position, because I think it’s dumb, but I would expect them to be involved in politics.
