Could be. The reality is that when people with licenses are exposed to people like Jackson, things can turn south in a real hurry. Idolization aside, my ability to maintain my license would be more important to me. I’m not a physician, just saying...
I wonder what the justification for using Class II narcotics on Jackson on an ongoing basis would be. Those meds are generally used temporarily, unless someone is terminal.
Paramedics may not usually, but they do call a lot of patients DOA. It’s very common for the meds to arrive, then call off any other units and request the coroner.
There are even scenarios where EMTs, rather than paramedics can say the patient is dead. Even if paramedics are working on the patient, the doctor at the hospital can call it over the radio.
