Hell I'm not even positive about USA, but I'm pretty sure a doctor is legally required to do whatever they can to save someone who is dying. There is absolutely no room for objection of conscious if the woman is dying. It's unacceptable and I feel like anyone who would think to do that isn't even a good person let alone a good doctor. All your country would have to do is provide some sort of incentive for being a doctor (as if the money isn't enough).
In portugal salaries have been cut. I completely agree with you when you say in case of death all doctors should provide their services. There is no contest in that, just a prevalence of the right to live, a lot more important than objection of conscience. However if there is no eminent danger of death, what about it? What's your proposal? The case of refusing abortion, I'd like to hear from you. I already said our law gave objectors the duty to immediately send a woman to a qualified professional after they object, to avoid dangers that could arise after the objection/refusal of treatment
