Israel's Health Ministry is still mulling over applying International Humanitarian Law and the Geneva Conventions, when it comes to notifying the patient-inmate of their medical evaluation and treatment.
Sde Teiman, being the medical prison camp that it is, takes patient restraints and blindfolds as a point of departure, but gives medical staff complete control over their application. Disputes will be negotiated between "man" and the guardians of "impossible place".
Consent of treatment is not necessary in the Sde Teiman medical prison camp, children included (more on children below). (This is a good time to recall that force feeding- a form of torture- is legal in Israel facebook.com/noonessparerib…)
Use of force for nonconsensual medical treatment in the Sde Teiman medical prison camp, will be carried out by the prison guards, with all the violent loopholes that Israeli law bestows. Ethical consultations are also optional.
The Health Ministry officially denies children are held in the Sde Teiman medical prison camp, but just in case would like to clarify that the Illegal Combatants Law applies to them, and that because they are abducted from their parents, there's no reason to seek their consent.
In the Sde Teiman medical prison camp "general anesthesia will be performed, as much as possible, with the participation of anaesthesiologists."
In the Sde Teiman medical prison camp, it would seem that amputations are carried out despite regulations stipulating it must be done at a hospital.
In the Sde Teiman medical prison camp, it is permissible to hand out sensitive medical information to prison guards and other security personnel, who are known to use it for systematic medical neglect purposes and very possibly torture.
In the Sde Teiman medical prison camp, treatment can be denied due to violent resistance to it by patients-inmates who are cuffed and blindfolded 24/7.
Here’s my forced amputations thread/FB post
And a reminder that despite the sanitizing language of “humanitarian” medical shielding- as @FranceskAlbs coined it- the Sde Teiman “field hospital” is fundamentally nothing but a torture camp 👇🧵
