New York State has revealed stark new guidelines for first responders urging them to no longer attempt to revive those suffering from cardiac arrest when responding to calls.
The terrifying new guideline comes as the State’s health care system is being strained to the breaking point in many areas due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
As The New York Post reports:
New York state just issued a drastic new guideline urging emergency services workers not to bother trying to revive anyone without a pulse when they get to a scene, amid an overload of coronavirus patients.
While paramedics were previously told to spend up to 20 minutes trying to revive people found in cardiac arrest, the change is “necessary during the COVID-19 response to protect the health and safety of EMS providers by limiting their exposure, conserve resources, and ensure optimal use of equipment to save the greatest number of lives,’’ according to a state Health Department memo issued last week.
First responders were outraged over the move.
“They’re not giving people a second chance to live anymore,’’ Oren Barzilay, head of the city union whose members include uniformed EMTs and paramedics, fumed of state officials.
The new guidelines could be a death sentence for some New Yorkers who fall ill due to non-coronavirus related cardiac events, marking the beginning of a truly dark new status quo in New York State.
How to think like a socialist:
“We have to let people die so we can save lives.”
In fkbamas fkyoucare it says they want people euthanized at age 75. there must be a way to stop these terrorists to save our country no matter how drastic.
This makes no sense. People who chose to have a DNR usually sign a form and have it in a clear place for first responders to see. If they don’t have one, first responders are required to try to get people going again. The Govener canno tell them who to save and who not to save. After the person is in the hospital and the doctor declairs them dead or if there is no hope, they have to find out if the patient has End of Life directives or ask the family what they want. The Govener is not God!!
I recall the days of liberals laughing at our claims of Death Squads.
Change from “the big apple” to the big ASSHOLE
Not at all surprised……Cuomo passed a bill allowing the killing of unborn baby’s up till 9 months of pregnancy and killing the baby after a botched abortion!!! The man is a disgusting human being , he tells us we don’t have the right to possible infect others, but he has given himself the right to decide who lives……WTF!!!!
I am speechless, this is the government playing GOD for a little power !! This is not only immoral, but down right against Gods law.
The New York government will answer for this stupidity. God help us all !!
Doctors are obligated, under their code of ethics, to resuscitate whenever possible, unless the victim has expressed opposite instructions. The directions of the Governor, or any government regulations to the contrary, notwithstanding.
Deblabla is a terrorists dream because he is one himself. He hates Americans and loves muslem terrorists. He needs to go far far away.
Perfect example of socializes medicine
When it come to new york anythig is possible,that is how blue states operate evil bastards.
I LEFT NY
Reading this I don’t know why everyone hasn’t. I know there are a lot of wonderful things in New York, but to know the first responders were told to not even try to resuscitate you is scary. I mean not even to try? They didn’t go from 20 minutes of trying to 15, 10, or even 5 minutes? No, don’t even try. Why respond to anything? Sorry I just find this unbelievable.
If the high taxes and horrible financial decisions of NY leadership doesn’t run off the remaining residents, a Law like this one certainly will.
The isis dems are terrorists and want to kill as many Americans as possible. They already murder millions of innocent babies. They thrive on that kind od power. Trump 2020
You are 100% correct. When it is fine to eliminate the next Generation, what is the big deal in eliminating a past Generation? I hope they realize , they will be old some day.
I hope the author of that draconian law finds that his mother, father, sister, brother or spouse is the first. For that matter, they themselves should be the first.
You mean like death panels?
That is now the New York way – kill babies, even after they are born. And now order first responders to allow everyone to die. I wish there was a way to expel states from this union!
Just let New York die since they are communist, Do Not Resuscitate New York!!
