True or False: Licensees may continue practicing veterinary medicine during a suspension.

The assertion that licensees may continue practicing veterinary medicine during a suspension is false. When a veterinary professional's license is suspended, it means they are not legally permitted to engage in any veterinary practice. The suspension is a disciplinary action that results from violations of regulations, laws, or professional standards, which ultimately is meant to protect the public and the welfare of animals.

Practicing during a suspension would not only breach legal and ethical standards but also expose both the practitioner and their clients to significant risks. Any actions taken regarding diagnostic, therapeutic, or surgical procedures during a suspension may lead to further penalties or legal actions against the individual. Therefore, the correct understanding is that a suspended license prohibits any form of veterinary practice until the suspension is lifted or resolved.
