or ya'll flatten personal curve
Is this why Swedes are dying in such huge numbers compared to their neighbors?
Does “not required” mean that if something is available and not in need, don’t bother to hook them up, or does it mean that they are in a general lowest tier, and while they may be hooked up, if somebody else comes along in a higher tier, they will be bumped?
Unless one has a tremendous amount of reserve/excess capacity in a system, triage is a real thing and while nobody likes triaging, it is best that some people have thought things through ahead of time as this will ultimately use limited resources in a more effective way.
One can also increase capacity, but when the SHTF and capacity is exceeded, triage is a real thing until demand is reduced or a way is found to increase capacity.
Socialized medicine.
You get/dont get what you pay for.
This disgusting triage denying care to elderly, is already silently done here. Medicare drags heels on payments I have heard which promotes such denial of care.
It’s pretty much inevitable with socialized medicine.
And the demonization of Sweden continues. Can’t have any non-draconian-ahutdown success stories, or the little Stalins everywhere won’t look so good.
Their country; their choice. So far, looking pretty good. Higher death rate now; lower later. No overwhelmed healthcare sector. And they didn’t kill their economy. Did you see what the St. Louis Fed just forcast? Up to 30% unemployed, 50% hit to GDP. I’ll take Sweden’s path anyday.
Sweden’s fatality rate is almost 9%.
