> Bob is unlikely to suffer personal harm for having dinner with just about anyone. However, his ethics of conduct and oath as a medical doctor - first, do no harm - could be breached by having an interaction with someone whom he knows to have emotional vulnerabilities. This is especially true of a professional who is conducting a harmful act that relates to their own field of practice.
Does Dr. Bob have to always 24/7 do no harm? How would he be harming me by going out to dinner?
