The government is the one who chooses which patients are treated and in what order. A patient may have a non-life-threatening condition that becomes life-threatening as he waits for treatment.
Aw cmon, Mom. As soon as the condition becomes life threatening, it gets immediate attention! Why do you have to bring flies to the ointment?
