Sweden Health Board Says Elderly Can Be Given Lower Priority, But Not Illegal Migrants

Sweden’s National Board of Health and Welfare has created guidelines for the priority of care for Chinese coronavirus patients that could see elderly Swedish citizens left to die in favour of illegal migrants.

Sweden’s elderly, along with Swedes with pre-existing health conditions, can be given lower priority than healthy young illegal migrants, according to the new guidelines.

Dr Thomas Lindén, of the National Board of Health and Welfare, said that health professionals should prioritise based on medical needs and not on the basis of citizenship, according to Nyheter Idag.

“The principles of prioritisation say that we should prioritise on the basis of medical needs and that all people have equal value. It means for someone who works in the healthcare industry that it is the people you have ahead of you, then you should not think about legal status, citizenship or so, but it is the medical need that should govern,” he said.

“Another question is what the regions do with people who may not have residence permits such as ‘paperless’ and others. It is important, partly for them to receive care but also for the protection of the infection to work. Both for those individuals and for society at large, it can be important that they receive care to stop the spread of infection,” Lindén added.

Prior reports had claimed that the Swedish government had begun detailing plans for a triage system in the event that emergency beds and intensive care units become overwhelmed by coronavirus patients.

The report came after former infection prevention physician Staffan Sylvan stated that the country’s medical system was completely unprepared in the event of a major viral outbreak.

Didn’t they tell us that socialist national health care was superior to the US system?

Another question, aren’t the Swedes pretty much Germans?

Agreed. If this isn’t a main symptom of a nation trying to kill itself, nothing is.

I think this is so sad.

I ask myself who are these people that see the elderly as entirely expendable?

Do they not have parents and grandparents whom they love and care about?

If not, why not?

Remember all the elderly that died in the French heatwave back in 1995? It’s a Euro thing.

It’s going to happen here as well.

How many American citizens will die in NY because an illegal alien took up the vent that they needed?

The operative word, “dying”. Sweden is gone, it will be the first European nation to have a majority Muslin pollution within the next 20 years.. Centuries of this countries proud heritage & culture sacrificed in less than 35 years on the altar of political correctness.

Insane, 15 years ago when nationalist Swedes starting speaking up, they were quickly branded as Nazis & silenced. The Muslim hordes kept coming.

Lol. They did. Maybe they were the best way back when but with all those INVITED immigrants, they are not anymore. Their crime rate skyrocketed, especially rape.
It was the nation's choice. Now they get to live with it.

Another question, aren’t the Swedes pretty much Germans?
Yes, as are the Danes, Icelanders, Norwegian, the British Isles and the Dutch.

The Irish are Celtic, not included in any group and are one of the FIRST people in Europe, right along with the Greeks and Romans.
