I’m sorry the guy died but a police car is not an ambulance and policemen are not EMTs.

They should be campaigning against the Big Lie of “safe and effective.” What a bunch of idiots.

“I’m sorry the guy died but a police car is not an ambulance and policemen are not EMTs.”

Starting in 1980, every company I worked for ran training programs to teach CPR and how to use the fire extinguisher. I took the opportunity at each company to get the practice. They also trained us on how to use defibrillators. One day I see the maintenance guys hauling a pallet of fire extinguishers out the building. I asked why. The company lawyers had decided the liability of someone staying to fight a fire was too high. (Incidentally, several of the companies I worked at over the years had small fires that could have turned into major disasters that were put out by fast-acting employees.) They also forbade CPR and removed the defibrillators. Same reason. I don’t know how common this is now. But if one Fortune 500 company is doing it, it is probably common.

Interesting. Just the opposite here - the Fire Marshall insists we have fire extinguishers every 50 feet or so. And they check the tags they need to be inspected/tagged/renewed every year, or, you can buy a new one every year yourself and tape the receipt on the outside so the Marshall can see it’s within the 1 year rule.

Whether you want to use it to fight fires, well, that’s up to you. But if you don’t want a fine you have to have them installed in conspicuous places and near exits.

They should have like medically trained people who drive around with equipment and stuff. Not sure what they’d call that.

Do the EMTs get pistols and full auto M-16s just in case they arrive to a crime before the police?

I worked in a shipyard. If we even allowed employees to fight fires we had to have a designated fire team. The OSHA requirements for such a team were such that they had to be basically trained firemen in addition to performing their jobs. It was ridiculously burdensome. Our official policy was was to evacuate.

The Free Republic Assumed COVID-19 Vaccine Death Obituary Ping




You are being pinged because this death notice was important enough to have its own thread, so you have to admit, it’s important!




Grim Reaper Approved!

Spanish police cars, well the ones in Catalunya anyway, carry automated defibrillators. Equipped vehicles have a little green AED sticker.

Like American cops Spaniards are trained as First responders. First responders are exposed to about 70% of the curriculum you get as an EMT. They have to renew every two years and need to maintain AED and CPR certification which is a whole other thing, but not too daunting.

In any medical emergency a cop, any cop if available, is the first resource to use.

Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla’s bioweapon takes another? Suddenly?

Listen to Bourla’s answers to pointed questions by the press:
https://rumble.com/v265v7y—rebel-news-confronts-albert-bourla-in-davos-over-the-safety-and-efficacy-o.html

Rebel News asks Bourla approximately 30 questions and receives zero answers.

See tag.
