BREAKING: Hospital In Chicago Is Considering A Universal DO-NOT-RESUSCITATE Policy For Infected Patients, Regardless Of Patient Wishes..
Sounds a lot like Italy's measures.

From the article:

Hospitals on the front lines of the pandemic are engaged in a heated private debate over a calculation few have encountered in their lifetimes — how to weigh the “save at all costs” approach to resuscitating a dying patient against the real danger of exposing doctors and nurses to the virus’s contagion.

The conversations are driven by the realization that the risk to staff amid dwindling stores of protective equipment — such as masks, gowns and gloves — may be too great to justify the conventional response when a patient “codes,” and their heart or breathing stops.

Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago has been discussing a universal do-not-resuscitate policy for infected patients, regardless of the wishes of the patient or their family members — a wrenching decision to prioritize the lives of the many over the one.

Not surprising considering it’s the home of former mayor Rahm “Never let a good crisis go to waste” Emanuel, who’s brother helped craft Obamacare’s “death panels”.

Sounds a lot like Italy's measures.

If you need a wake-up call, here it is: My husband was on a
large conference call of American med school deans last
night. One asked about legal coverage for pulling people off
ventilators to give to others more likely to survive. I.e.,
not being charged with murder. Here we are.

Mayor Cuomo funded death panels instead of buying 15,000 respirators that the CDC asked them to purchase.

This is disgusting. From what I hear, there is way more than a sufficient amount of respirators and protective garb. Are the hospital administrators so incomplete to not build up an inventory?

I even read the Kaiser P. was telling nurses they would be fired if they wore then 'own' masks! All hospital administrators are evil, self-serving scum, as are many doctors.

There is information “out there” about the chances of survival after being on a ventilator. Some of the information is older, so has nothing to do with the “corona virus”. Generally, the elderly do not do very well on a ventilator - many die. Of those who survive the ventilator - many are left with debilitating diseases.
