The anesthesiologist, however, does not have an ambulance to transport the patient. Hence, paramedics in an ambulance are called. I think it’s a safe bet that medical people on the scene were doing what they could before paramedics arrived, but if this girl had a severe allergic reaction, there was probably little that could be done.

Transport the patient where?

To the Hospital? To the ICU?

At the most advanced hospital ICU's, who are the intensivists?

Anesthesiologists.

The article did not say the paramedics gave transport. It said they gave "aid".

A few days ago there was an article about an abortionist whose patient died because the only three people in the room were the patient, himself and the non-medical office assistant.

Seems to me the article clearly DID say they gave transport:

“Paramedics were summoned to the teen’s aid at the Boca Raton outpatient surgery unit where she’d had the procedure, and they rushed her to Delray Medical Center. She died there on Saturday.”

“A few days ago there was an article about an abortionist whose patient died because the only three people in the room were the patient, himself and the non-medical office assistant.”

Are women getting abortions usually put under (I don’t know the answer to this)? If not, there’s no need for an anesthesiologist or anther doctor.
