I thought that the whole process of triage was about treating the worst cases first and the rest in order of injury. Those who are dying and without any hope of recovery, you just make comfortable and move on. If I was a doctor, I couldn't pass up on any patient. I'd have to treat everyone the same.

The 1918 influenza outbreak generally proved deadly to people under 21. I don't know how well family members are going to accept watching a loved one (what appears to them) needlessly die if some other catastrophic virus or plague strikes. These days it is hard enough to enact some sort of measure to stop a virus from spreading. :wink: (quarantine) :wink: As for another deadly flu epidemic, it is just a matter of time.

I truly hope it does not come to that. Just had a flashback of Dr. Strangelove, babbling away about deep shaft mines, using reasoning a logic to decide who would be saved and who would die.
