elective surgeries are cancelled.
he said his expected surgery is urgent.
you inserted the word emergency.
it's hard to follow an argument that proceeds this way.
- jacquesm 7y agoUrgent is a term that is materially different from emergency in hospital parlance. I was laid up for a week with an 'urgent' surgery pending (twice!) because I kept being bumped by emergencies who needed it still much more than I did.
- fsckboy 7y agoyes, but I believe that, while urgent can get bumped by emergency, urgent is not covered by elective and urgent can proceed when elective is banned.
