Yeah I mean it’s pretty obvious.
If the resources that keep people alive are all taken and you’re not willing to take that resource from somebody using one, then the next person who needs one is going to be left out.
So either we get OK with pulling the plug, build more of the machines, come up with a new idea, or be OK with people who need these things dying.
- nradov 3y agoBuilding more machines isn't sufficient. The limiting factor is expert human healthcare providers to operate the machines, and do the other things necessary to keep the patient alive.
- paulcole 3y agoOk so add “get more people” to the list of options…
- nradov 3y agoThis is complex work which requires extensive training, and very few people are capable or even willing to do it regardless of pay. Our resources are limited, and this is not the best use.
- paulcole 3y agoRight... so you don't do that and go with one of the other options. Like I said the first time...
