BREAK: Leaked letter from hospitals shows patient "eligibility" guidelines for ventilators.
Ineligible/dying may not get access, only pain meds/"comfort care".

This is standard practice. It's called triage. It's malpractice to let two people die if you could have saved one of them. Given unlimited resources, this doesn't happen. I've declared people dead because of this, more than once. Welcome to Emergency Medicine
