That isn't a debate for a hospital. Doctors are in the business of saving lives. The Doctors factor in many things when making such decisions. They agonize over such decisions. I imagine they consult with other Doctors. I doubt Doctors factor in country of origin or prejudice when making such decisions. I couldn't make that decision. Which is why I'm not a Doctor.
And many of our seniors - people who gave every ounce to this country - will now die because of decadent, flagrant open-borders hatred and abuse via of left-wing loons who flooded America endlessly with these people who shouldn't be here.

Who says you should be here?

He'll also need respiratory therapist to run/maintain those 30,000 ventilators and the patient on them and he'll need ICU level nursing staff. There is a big difference between ICU nurses and nursing home nurses. And hospitals are always short staffed.

I could safely run 20, maybe 25 vents on a shift (and that was without the patient being in isolation). Demanding 30,000 ventilators? Cuomo is now grandstanding.



Thank you for being 'in the trenches' Petch.

And now there are Americans who are going to die because of the flippant, recklessness of such unmitigated open-borders policies. All because of left-wingers (and yes, a bunch of RINO scum as well).

But your leader says it came from China. Do we have tons of Chinese running across our borders every day ?

Yes, they had been but the Wall is helping slow them down.

Even a ton from places in Africa, Bangladesh, China, Pakistan.

Now people who gave every once of blood, sweat and tears to their country are going to have a ventilator given to these people who have NO RIGHT TO BE HERE!!!!!



SICK!!!
Just another excuse to spew xenophobia and ethnocentrism gratuitously. May I remind you that there is a elected official in your area who is a former refugee and she is giving back multiple times in gratitude in serving society and community - including folks with the small minded mentality such as yours. And is rewarded with this with regular death threats and slurs. And I know that just eats at you!

Thank goodness you aren't in charge of the government. Or a medical professional who takes the Hippocratic Oath seriously.

“Wow” is sort of the only word that comes to mind reading through this thread.

There’s more than one person who should probably get a life - you know, take a walk, get some fresh air, and remember there’s a lot more to life...

Well, you are here by the accident of birth, but your words and actions suggest you don't deserve to be here.

Who says your ancestors should have been here? And how do you know God thinks you should be here?
