This will be SOP under govt run ‘medicare for all’ if the left gets its way.

[BlackAdderess]

Right. Which is going to drive up their death count.

[Jim Robinson]

The marxist/fascist death party moves in.

New York state instructs paramedics not to revive cardiac patients

Cuomo and his ilk wants bodies to hang around President Trumps neck.

[ryderann]

Cardiac arrest for 20 minutes? Not too sure if I’d want to be dragged back to this side right in the middle of talking things over with Saint Peter.

[BlackAdderess]

so, what is the estate tax rate in NY?

[Vermont Lt]

This is news? This was discussed 6 weeks ago.

Yes, if they don't care about babies, then they certainly don't care about older folks who have health conditions (and who just might remember how things used to be in this Fine Country, and who just might vote accordingly.)

[heartwood]

Around 10 % of out of hospital cardiac arrest patients survive to be released.

As much as a third if arrest is witnessed and CPR started immediately.

[Berosus]

I am guessing that the next step will be to invent Soylent Green.

[Thommas]

WTF?

[null and void]

Just in case there was any question about democrats wanting people to die...

[griswold3]

All padding the stats in the Covid-19 column, of course.

[Osage Orange]

Well...I'm a DNR...it is my decision.

I'm in the HC Biz...I've seen enough dying and suffering.

But this is wrong.

I've done CPR on people that came back...and were okay.

[Osage Orange]

That would be about right....

[Maudeen]

Short of murder. . .if not so. What do you want to bet the illegals get resussitated.

[Maudeen]

make that resuscitated

[Savage Beast]

Not a good place to have a heart attack...

"Good-bye, Mom! So long, Dad. We told you to move to Florida when you had the chance!"

[StormEye]

There's is no way such a edict from the state of New York
is even legal.

A person is hit by a car and laying on the side of the road.
Maybe the person heart is beating irregularly.
Is New York telling paramedics to ignore that person?
Maybe someone's kid swallowed something toxic and the heart
isn't beating correctly. Are paramedics supposed to
ignore the kid and drive on?

Whomever issued this "order" in New York needs to be
brought up on charges of manslaughter and maybe murder
for any death that results from this ridiculous edict.

Any paramedic should be fired and any medical licensing
that person has terminated and prosecuted too for failure
to carry out his/her job.
