Passage A
    Those who prepare themselves for a medical career may have heard of the Hippocratic Oath and its
modern version "Declaration of Geneva," first established in Geneva, 1948, now known for its 2017
revision after amendments and editorial works. Here is an excerpt of this modemn version in English:
At the time of being admitted as a member of the medical profession:
I solemnly pledge to consecrate my life to the service of _______；
I will give to my teachers the respect and gratitude that is their due； [. . .]；
My colleagues will be my sisters and brothers；
I will not permit considerations of age, disease or disability, creed, ethnic origin, gender,
nationality, political affiliation, race, sexual orientation, social standing or any other factor
to intervene between my duty and my patient； [. . .]；
I make all these promises solemnly, freely and upon my honor.
But perhaps few people have heard of 'Declaration of Taipei"-agreed in 2016 but not yet
officially approved by the WMA (World Medical Association). This new declaration tries to achieve a
balance between the rights of individuals giving their tissues or data for research and other purposes
based on confidentiality and privacy rules while at the same time recognizing that health data has
become a very powerful tool for increasing knowledge.
    According to the WMA, scenarios have already existed for the use and misuse of health data and
biobanks. Therefore, the Association came to the conclusion that the major risk scenarios may not _______science, but may be caused by the commercial, administrative or political use of such data.
    Therefore, the 'Declaration of Taipei" aims to address any use of health databases and biobanks
excluding individual treatment and is not restricted to research. As physicians are the primary custodians of confidential health information, they should feel an obligation towards their patients and other persons who entrust them with their data and specimens.
