He and wife attended maskless White House party last weekend, both got an unexpected present.

Meanwhile, over 5000 deaths in our small state. McMaster would not allow a statewide mask mandate.

Wish them all the best.

Why even worry when you can be one of the few who has ready access to a cure?

This country is so deep into the $#!tter, things like this are not even surprising anymore.

But what of dear Granny? Or Gramps?

Meh - just triage 'em…

He said some facilities, though far from all, are already beginning the process of building the groups of crisis care specialists who would oversee the rationing process. Called “triage teams” in the state’s guidelines and led by a “triage officer,” these groups of medical professionals would have the authority to make decisions “regarding the immediate or long-term survivability” of patients who need intensive care admission and/or access to mechanical ventilators when the system is overwhelmed.

The guidelines include a table that helps teams assign patients to one of four priority groups based on assessments that include a range of factors from blood platelet count oxygenation to gauge the functioning of vital organs.

And if this isn't bad enough…

Still, who gets an ICU bed when resources are overwhelmed may still come down to a coin flip. State guidelines advise “a lottery (i.e. random allocation)” when two or more patients have identical risk scores and similarly-risky underlying medical conditions.

Do you feel lucky? Well, Do Ya?

If you're a paid up member of the oligarchy, you have nothing to worry about.

I'm getting tired of well-wishing people that are only going to go back to harming others once they recover.

I know. From me it's a perfunctory gesture, at best.

So true. The behavior of our American elites is going to be one of the uglier chapters of the Pandemic 2020-2021 history.

They're fully in place doing triage here in SoCal - not enough beds or people to staff them.
