“Emergency officials tell NBC News the measure will alleviate an influx of patients from going to the hospitals that have no hope of being saved.”

Did anyone read the article?

These are always BS cases for the ER. Waste of time and resources. Now in addition, they would increase risk of exposure to this virus for all concerned. So. No. Don’t bring dead people to the ER. Sorry.

In my defense, I do find it difficult to follow NBC links. No excuse though. I read the excerpt only when I normally do go to the link. My bad.

When looking at the excerpt, I think we can agree that this is a good example of NBC sensationalizing our current situation to stoke and take advantage of people's fears and emotions.

You are right though, if you look past the NBC BS and actually get to the real story, it makes more sense.
