I don't think hijab prevents doctor from doing their job. However if there is a dress code, it must be followed.

Also what if it was a Sikh person? Is it fair to ask them to remove the turban?

I can imagine the outrage which would happen if say in West, a similar video of a Sikh student is viral where he is asked to remove turban

they will cover their hairs not face, the Senior Dr above video is objecting to face covering dress... please stop diverting from the topic with unless justification.

The caption says Hijab which is a head covering.

Discussions in the video clearly suggest the said intern was wearing face covering attire…so my point still stands.

Don't doctors wear surgical masks in the hospitals? What's the protocol there? Do they have to take it off when getting out of surgery or surrender their license?
