You introduce working 19 hours without sleep before surgery as a hyperbolic excess that should get one fired.
In fact, it appears to be routine and required of medical residents in the US. Which is ridiculous.

It seems medical students and their teachers can't apply basic notions of healthy living on themselves. I always wondered why they agree to stay up to 24 or 36 hours per shift. Can't they have 8 hour long work shifts?
