“The coroner ruled that the baby died from natural causes and that the hospital’s lack of care “did not affect the outcome.”

This is the kind of statement I would have previously expected to hear from the USSR, or China.

I can't imagine the pain this woman went through watching this happen, helplessly. Twenty-two weeks is right on the cusp of possible survival, and maybe there wasn't a chance, but it's hard to know for sure - and it's sometimes hard to know dates for sure. This kind of ‘policy-driven’ medical decision making takes empathy and humanity out of medicine.

I wonder, if this child had been born to the Royal family, what would have been done?

You nailed it. We don’t know because they didn’t try. Had they helped this baby and the baby still died, the mother would have some sense of peace.

But leaving her cold like that... I cannot imagine the rage an grief that she must’ve felt in that hour. What insensitive, inhumane a******s.

(Sometimes I despise censoring. This situation calls for profanity.)

I would like to know who made the coroner God.
