Oh yeh... and I think for each of us, we should insert: "won't intubate
anyone over <insert your age-1>" to think this through with the right
attitude.   And maybe even consider "won't admit into a conventional
hospital"


and I'm wondering if there has been a surge in the sales/creation of
"plague-doctor" masks which were apparently the *practical* fashion for
people trying to help during the black death...   when they did at least
understand "the germ theory" insomuch as to attribute it to "mal air" or
"miasma"
