on a flight with LH from Bogota to Frankfurt in the late 70's. I (working for the swiss salt works) was accompanied by two doctors from Switzerland. We were travelling on a World Health Organisation mission participating at a congress about fluor added to salt and/or water in Medellin to fight "caries"(is that the english word?).

LH asked if, by any chance, there would be a doctor on board. Both doctors did not want to be known and didn't react. I asked them why. They replied, that they were afraid of later juristic implications ...

Since then I don't give much on the medical-profession's oath anymore (what's the name of that greek god again)!?!
