Fare il medico… c’è chi dice che è una vocazione e lo è sicuramente, ma è altrettanto certo che al giorno d’oggi è una sfida, soprattutto in contesti come la guardia medica! È una sfida, perché non è possibile che un medico nell’esercizio delle proprie funzioni venga aggredito

Doesn't make sense at all, but somehow feel compelled to.
What could it be due to?
1. It is Ok to hit someone:
Physical retribution for perceived wrong has been acceptable in our society (thrashing in schools/police with lathi/spanking kids for eg)
1/n
2. Bipolar perception of the profession:
Noble profession - not a job that should pay the bills (expecting anything in return for job well done makes it less noble)
Doctors deified (can perform miracles, bring back from dead) + vilified (fleece patients, take cuts, looters)
3. How dare they make money?
We celebrate young techies, IITians making big money: they are meant to.
Doctors - no!: It is ok if they make some, but we really don't like them making a lot
An entrepreneur hitting gold - must be a genius
A doctor well off - must be fleecing
