The NY Post is reporting that New York state has just reversed their outrageous blanket do-not-resuscitate directive instructing first-responders not to try to revive patients without a pulse amid increased call volumes and lack of resources during the coronavirus public health crisis, according to a report.
The state had originally said that the order is �necessary during the COVID-19 response to protect the health and safety of EMS providers by limiting their exposure, conserve resources, and ensure optimal use of equipment to save the greatest number of lives,�� according to a memo issued last week by the state Department of Health.
The @nypost is now reporting that the NYS Health Department has pulled back this guideline. This is the right decision – thank you @HealthNYGov Commisisoner Zucker. https://t.co/lJkOl3d9FC https://t.co/q2JYQdq4NR
