I knew this push for universal health care was coming because they are currently in the process of bankrupting all our hospitals. Entire hospital floors empty, doctors and nurses being furloughed, etc.
We have to get them -- and everyone else -- back to work before it's too late.
Wouldn't? Or did they actually face their healthcare system at capacity, with no ability to treat everyone that needed it?
I would point out that they got hit hard so early that we didn't know about Trump pills, and healthcare workers had a legitimate excuse to not know that ventilators are a TERRIBLE way to treat CCPvirus, especially when you use a ventilator in the usual way.
I already knew how ventilators would be misused, and most US Drs are still making that mistake. But I think data does support the "ICU beds and ventilators" shortage that kicked off the media induced hysteria here.
Yes, wouldn't. It came down to a choice, and they chose a class of people to exclude from treatment, and that was the elderly. They chose the people who were most vulnerable to it and let them die.
"It came down to a choice." Meaning that they actually were at capacity, and didn't have enough ventilators, and had to choose who to treat and who to let die?
It prevents hospital overloads because they can just kick out the people they don’t think deserve to be there!

It's too late.
That attitude helps what, exactly?
I like where you're going with this...
...and that right there is why the mortality rate in Italy was so high. They wouldn't treat the elderly.
