The Lancet Commission on Medicine, Nazism and the Holocaust was published in November 2023, recognized the potential dangers for the medical profession that are echoed in this history. The tragic events on 7 October 2023 have revealed just how timely and important the Commission's publication is and have raised the question of the relevance to the Holocaust to this attack. One of the continuities from this past and which has dangerous implications for current medicine, is antisemitism. Examination of the antisemitism inherent to medical education in Nazi Germany raises the question of antisemitism in current academia. Since October 7th there has been a drastic rise in antisemitism and antisemitic actions in both the academy and in medicine. We have seen outright refusal to condemn the brutal perpetrators of the October 7th massacre and continue to observe explicit support for the perpetrators from both faculty and students. Medicine, a profession whose foundational tenet is the well being of humanity–all humanity–and that hallows moral clarity, cannot allow for antisemitic speech and actions to exist within the profession. Awareness and education on this history is crucial for the medical profession so that the tragic events of the past do not happen again.
