As an important step in becoming a doctor, medical students must take the Hippocratic Oath. And one of the promises within that oath is âfirst, do no harmâ (or âprimum non nocere,â the Latin translation from the original Greek.)
Today, most graduating medical-school students swear to some form of the oath, usually a modernized version. Indeed, oath-taking in recent decades has risen to near uniformity, with just 24 percent of U.S. medical schools administering the oath in 1928 to nearly 100 percent today.
