But, muh death panels.

Yahoo News

quote:

Coronavirus victims in Italy will be denied access to intensive care if they are aged 80 or more or in poor health should pressure on beds increase, a document prepared by a crisis management unit in Turin propose.

Some patients denied intensive care will in effect be left to die, doctors fear.

Don’t they know healthcare is a human right? Will they be prosecuted for human rights violations?

Just like the abortion issue, it's a matter of their definition of "human" in terms of value.

Exactly. If I'm feeling ill, you MUST do everything you can to make me feel better. This is a human right.

We're on our way to Logan's Run, if you're over 30, you need to be exterminated.

When your at the mercy of someone else's $, they are not going to spend it treating the elderly.

Socialized medicine is a death sentence to the elderly.

You can't triage a "human right", bro. It either is or it isn't.
