More creeping sharia

Don't you want your doctor's hands and arms to be sterile? Female Muslim medics 'disobey hygiene rules'

Women training in several hospitals in England have raised objections to removing their arm coverings in theatre and to rolling up their sleeves when washing their hands, because it is regarded as immodest in Islam. The measure is deemed necessary to stop the spread of infections such as MRSA and Clostridium difficile, which have killed hundreds.

Dr Charles Tannock, a Conservative MEP and former hospital consultant, said: "These students are being trained using taxpayers' money and they have a duty of care to their patients not to put their health at risk.

"Perhaps these women should not be choosing medicine as a career if they feel unable to abide by the guidelines that everyone else has to follow."
That's what common sense & 200 years of medical science would demand, but that is before the malignant islamists lawyer up, and sue in court under the 'I am muslim' defense, to force the rest of the world to conform to their dictates.

Creeping sharia...coming to a North American continent near you.

Update: A Christian bishop in the U.K. from Pakistan finds himself under death threats for criticizing Islam.
Dr Nazir-Ali was warned that he would not "live long" and would be "sorted out" if he continued to criticise Islam, following his claim that parts of Britain had become "no-go" areas for non-Muslims.
Once again, the islamists try to erode basic civil rights. Surprise!
