My NYC lib friend today posted how can they do this? I posted - Because you live in a state where an live born aborted baby can then be murdered. There is no love and regard for life in your state.

A single lawsuit would cost tens of millions. Imagine a thousand all across the state. You’re talking about bankrupting the entire state due to something unconscionable, illegal, and medically unethical. Comrade Cuomo should be given a Pinochet rode for this.

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

Roses are red
Soylent is green
Get to the shelter
It's COVID-19

It’s a guideline only, personal judgment should always have the final say.

Worth re-asking:

so, what is the estate tax rate in NY?

up to 16%

6 years ago, I was revived. I’ve live a better life with my 2nd chance. Oh, did I mention I pay a lot of taxes too?

Love your comment...

I agree. @20 minutes in, I am probably flying somewhere near Tahiti.

Having to return to NY (where I currently reside) is not something I would embrace.

The grizzled old paramedic who taught some of the ACLS courses I took said that during his long career in detroit he got credit for saving a couple thousand folks who had been in cardiac arrest. He then said that he knew of only one patient who left the hospital neurologically normal and a few that were discharged to nursing homes, the rest died in the hospital after some varying period of time. If you are in full cardiac arrest outside of a hospital you are probably going to die no matter how hard they pump on your chest..(If they are doing it right they will probably break some of your ribs.)

Triage over hospital space and yet that space is not universally overwhelmed across the city, and there is still a 3000 bed temporary hospital ward at the Javits convention center. Meanwhile NYC told the Navy they could remove from a NY dock their 1,000 medical ship.

But oh, lets not try to save non-Covid-19 patients who are just short of being revived from a heart stopping occasion. /sarc

If PPE equipment is fine for the hospital, it can be stored in the EMS vehicle and quickly donned when trying to restart a heart.

We have seen the Covid-19 death numbers for NYC first responders. It is less - as a % of those in that category, than for the NYC general population.

To what extend did EMS union power have on the city making this DNR policy?

the socialists will need to keep their death worship in check or they’ll run out of tax payers and all the survivors will have to work harder.
