LA Paramedics Told Not To Transport Some Patients With Low Chance Of Survival:

The Los Angeles County Emergency Medical Services Agency issued a directive Monday that ambulance crews should only administer bottled oxygen to patients whose oxygen saturation levels fall below 90%.

In a separate memo from the county's EMS Agency, paramedic crews have been told not to transfer patients who experience cardiac arrest unless spontaneous circulation can be restored on the scene.

Both measures announced Monday, which were issued by the agency's medical director, Dr. Marianne Gausche-Hill, were taken in an attempt to get ahead of an expected surge to come following the winter holidays.

Many hospitals in the region "have reached a point of crisis and are having to make very tough decisions about patient care," Dr. Christina Ghaly, the LA County director of health services said at a briefing Monday.

[...] "We do not believe that we are yet seeing the cases that stemmed from the Christmas holiday," Ghaly added. "This, sadly, and the cases from the recent New Year's holiday, is still before us, and hospitals across the region are doing everything they can to prepare."

'We Are Not Abandoning Resuscitation': LA County Healthcare Leader Speaks Out After Memo Raises Concerns:

Los Angeles County hospitals are so inundated, officials said they're just trying to provide the best care they can for the people who need it.

The memo sent out on December 28 by the medical director of L.A. County's Emergency Medical Services agency, Dr. Marianne Gausche-Hill, addressed how first responders should treat stroke and heart attack patients, saying a patient should be treated at the scene first and have a pulse during resuscitation before transporting them to the hospital.

[...] The medical director of L.A. County's Emergency Services Agency, Dr. Marianne Gausche-Hill, assured CBS2 that officials continue to do all they can to save patients' lives at the scene and the hospital, as they always have.

"We are not abandoning resuscitation," Gausche-Hill said. "We are absolutely doing best practice resuscitation and that is do it in the field, do it right away... What we're asking is that — which is slightly different than before — is that we are emphasizing the fact that transporting these patients arrested leads to very poor outcomes.

    Fair would be to ration care based on what you did to get sick.

    Prefer those who made an effort to stay well and were unlucky.
    Defer those who made an effort to flaunt the rules.

    Need a bed in the ICU? Just find footage of a guy with a bed having a great time at a maskless party.

    No matter how stupid folks are, I don't want to live in a world like that.
    Even if Darwin says we shouldn't, we have a responsibility to all.

    So ration according to need and expectation of a good outcome.

    I think I am ok with some community service and reparations for unnecesary actual, direct cost to the community, though.
    So write tickets for attending parties.
    Cost is $1 if all is well.
    Cost is your hospital bill if not.

    Why do we have as much responsibility to those who cause more problems for society than to those who did nothing exceptional or unwarranted to get sick?

    What about people in prison? If someone does something stupid (called a "crime"), as a society we apprehend these people, to prevent them from causing further harm to society, and we isolate them in "prisons". Bad actions carry negative consequences.

    If we're willing to throw people in prison as punishment for breaking rules, then why not do the same who flout the rules about mask-wearing and quarantining and social distancing? Why should people who break the rules get off scot-free, and worse, be allowed to murder other innocent people by taking up valuable healthcare/hospital resources they need?

      You are assuming that if you of superior morality (follow all your Leader's commandments), you will never get sick. If you do get sick though, obviously it was the devil (unmasked people) who gave it to you. This is the mental response to the mental crisis caused by believing the only people to catch COVID are those who deserve it.

      Newsflash: You can still catch the virus even while wearing a mask, and with no unclean people in sight. It's a respiratory virus. Even animals have been found to harbor the virus, and nobody had yet been able to make all the dogs, cats, squirrels, and bats wear masks.

          Remember the goal was always to "Slow the spread", not "Stop the spread." Because the latter is not possible with little paper face masks. And if the masks really DID stop the virus, why are you worried about catching it if you always wear yours? Do admit it is WEAK SAUCE?

            You are some special kind of stupid when you are pointing out how the whole point is supposed to be "slow the spread" and this story is exactly about not enough resources because it spread too quickly.

            Funny how for over 100 years they've had to wear masks in the operating room. Who knew that after all this time that it we've been infringing upon the doctor and nurse's freedoms! Me, personally, would greatly prefer the nurse to not sneeze into my open chest cavity during surgery. Now I wonder what the similarities are between the two situations?

                  To be fair COVID is airborn as well in the breath to some degree, however even if some virus particles get through the mask it drastically reduces the radius of virus loaded exhalations. This means the people around you are less likely to inhale the virus before it disperses enough to not be a major threat, especially if people maintain social distancing. The AC is just a rabid anti-masker

        There's no reason to. Dogs & cats can't transmit the virus to humans in spite of being capable of catching it from us, and the solution with wild animals is just to stay away from them, which people should be doing anyway.

      Darwin didn't say that. He said that's the way species interactions happened in nature. The "Social Darwinist"s profoundly misrepresented what he said. Many of them intentionally, and for their own profit. Some, however, seem to have done it purely because they didn't like anyone who wasn't a wealthy white male of (pick a nation, there's lots of choices).

      P.S.: Even so, Darwin profoundly underestimated the complexity of the behavioral rules. So has everyone who's written anything accessible on the topic...and many who only wrote for a professional audience. The intersection of Game Theorists, Geneticists, and Ethologists is nearly a null set...and you probably need to add a few more specialties in there to cover the full range of interactions.

            You're correct, I've never bothered to read any of his works. I haven't read much on evolution written before 1960, and don't consider it likely to be worthwhile. So if you've found a "Social Darwinist" who isn't there because of some variety of bigotry, I'll accept your word for it. I only read Darwin because he was the source. Do remember that Darwin's evolution was before genetics was known outside of a monastery.

            P.S.: FWIW many people whose opinions I respect did not consider Spencer's interpretation to be sound even before the "new synthesis" put a solid foundation under "main-stream evolutionary theory". I do admit that prior to the new synthesis the theoretical interpretations of evolution were quite shaky, but the evidence hasn't changed (only expanded, deepened, and gotten richer). And his theories are reported to not follow the then existing evidence....so he must have had some other reason for them. You are free to impute any motives that you feel appropriate, but they need to be consistent with the selection of evidence that he made.

            I generally accept the word of judges when speaking ex-officio about matters of fact rather than judgements of law. And I generally accept that those are reported with "reasonable accuracy". Also lawyers when speaking under oath in court (though not at a press conference).

            WRT civil service officials I tend to be a bit skeptical. In my experience they generally try to do their job, but often slack off a bit, and will say what they feel they need to to CYA. So more reliable than politicians or used car salesmen...but definitely need back-up facts.

      There is no need to ration anything if you did things properly like China. 85% of the people will follow the rules.

      You have clearly never been to China. Chinese do not obey stop lights unless there's a soldier standing there with an automatic rifle.

      Please don't peddle ignorance to make a rhetorical point.

    I would also like to implement some sort of rationing system. Instead of your proposed system that punishes young and healthy, I would isntead prioritize the beds based on how well a person upkeeps their body. Have some sort of a number that is the product of your BMI and Cholesterol.

    Now when was the last time you had a cheeseburger, you fat fuck?

    Need a bed in the ICU? Just find footage of a guy with a bed having a great time at a maskless party.

    Or of nurses dancing on Tiktok because they are so un-busy?

    take the names of all who attend trump 'rallies'.

    they are now the last on the list for any covid care and they are possibly not on the list for the vaccine.

    the plague rats are serious; we need to be serious too, if we are to survive this.

    there are people who actively do all they can to ruin things for the rest of us.

    deny them all care.

    heartless? I have less empathy this year than I did last year. wonder why....

      Does your ability to empathise with other humans extend so far to allow you to realise that the people attending Trump 'rallies' (your quotes) aren't counting on the vaccine gods needing to deliver them from any harm the virus demon rationally will do to them?

      OK, Grish! By your own order, you would deny the Democrat politicians, BLM, a lot of militant people of color and their dopey white "allies" (teachers, social workers, etc.) any medical access because THEY were the very first to have mass rallies in open disregard of distancing mandates. Some medical associations gave them a WAIVER because "racism" is a WORSE health epidemic than coronavirus!

      Did you completely blank that out of your mind already, you hateful bastard?

      Most of those are young enough to have an asymptomatic case. That means they can spread it without suffering any quick negative effects. Over a long period of time many of them will suffer impaired health, but it will probably be long enough after they clear the virus that they'll never make the connection. https://www.webmd.com/lung/news/20200811/asymptomatic-covid-silent-but-maybe-not-harmless [webmd.com]
