To prepare, hospitals should designate a triage team with the Godlike task of deciding who will and who won’t get lifesaving care, the task force wrote. Those out of luck are the people at high risk of death and a slim chance of long-term survival. But the recommendations get much more specific, and include:

People older than 85.

Those with severe trauma, which could include critical injuries from car crashes and shootings.

Severely burned patients older than 60.

Those with severe mental impairment, which could include advanced Alzheimer’s disease.

Those with a severe chronic disease, such as advanced heart failure, lung disease or poorly controlled diabetes.

So basically all Dems.

Ironically, in the coming nationalized medical care system with its expected shortage of personnel, we'll likely see the same list of criteria applied sans any epidemic. There won't be enough trained medical personnel to treat all, so there will be choices as to who to treat.

I'm sure that politics won't play a role in those decisions. [/s]

......Severely burned patients older than 60......

To be denied treatment, must the patient also have the flu?

This list, if applied without favoritism, could enable the enforcement of “term limits” on some members of Congress, and maybe SCOTUS and other Federal Judgeships.

This is UNBELIEVABLE!

And then it will move on to....

Conservatives
Christians
Gun owners
anyone opposed to gay marriage

Note the key passage “all must be thinking in the same way”
right or wrong.
