    Coronavirus: The young doctors being asked to play god

    "The most anxiety I have is around ventilator allocation. Seeing people die is not the issue. We're trained to deal with death. Nor is it the volume of people dying. The issue is giving up on people we wouldn't normally give up on." She described a patient being brought in from an old people's home. He was already on a ventilator - and was "chronically vent dependent". His prospects were never great. But all she could see before her was the ventilator - and not the patient.
    "When he came in we were so desperate for vents," she told me, "all I wanted to do was get the ventilator off him. I wanted to get that vent off him to allow it to go to someone else."
    Playing god is not what this young woman thought she would be doing at this stage in her career.

    Both a derail and a lie. Expected from a person of your low character.

    Trump would lose any triage decision. A 6 year old Trump in a car wreck needs a liver versus a drunken slumlord on his 4th liver?
    Give the liver to the drunkard

    What an insightful comment. That is so true.

    The fact remains the only proof anyone has on an anonymous forum is their posts. They can make all the claims they want, but it's the summation of their posts which define who they are. You continue to define yourself as I asserted, sir.



    All those paintball welts, eh? LOL
    No proof from you means you're using the typical left wing 'because I said so' as a "source". Lacks credibility.

    No, dealing with real situations unlike you.
