It emphasises that neither age nor disability are in themselves relevant criteria for making decisions about treatment. This follows on from widespread (and perhaps misleading) reporting about a tool. This tool has NHS branding, but it doesn't appear to have come from NHS_England+Improvement. http://prod-upp-image-read.ft.com/765d3430-7a57-11ea-af44-daa3def9ae03 http://prod-upp-image-read.ft.com/765d3430-7a57-11ea-af44-da...
