Vaccination Status May Be Considered To Get ICU Beds At Dallas-Area Hospitals If Covid Spread Worsens
If North Texas starts running out of ICU beds, doctors may have to consider coronavirus vaccination status as a factor in who gets priority care—a situation health officials hope to avoid but worry is becoming increasingly likely—with the vaccinated potentially being prioritized for treatment on the assumption that they’re more likely to survive.
- Members of the North Texas Mass Critical Care Guideline Task Force held a meeting last week about the worsening Covid crisis in the area, and discussed the possibility that doctors might need to use Covid vaccination status to prioritize care in extreme scenarios.
- A spokesman for the task force told Forbes that doctors at the meeting noted unvaccinated Covid patients were suffering worse outcomes, leading to an internal memo being sent to members of the task force—which provides guidance for physicians in the Dallas area—telling doctors they could take vaccination status into account when deciding who to care for, if needed.
- The memo was leaked to The Dallas Morning News, which was the first outlet to report the news on Thursday.
- Dr. Mark Casanova, the task force's spokesman, told Forbes that other factors—like pre-existing conditions—would be taken into effect in situations where patients have to be prioritized for care, and unvaccinated status will not be used as an "exclusion criteria."
- But if all things are equal between two patients suffering from Covid-19, the one who is vaccinated would be seen as more likely to survive, Casanova said, meaning they would receive care first.

I'm fine with this. It sucks. It's difficult. But there is something out there that is proven to help this situation, and people are avoiding to it for reasons.Vaccination Status May Be Considered To Get ICU Beds At Dallas-Area Hospitals If Covid Spread WorsensIf North Texas starts running out of ICU beds, doctors may have to consider coronavirus vaccination status as a factor in who gets priority care—a situation health officials hope to avoid but worry is becoming increasingly likely—with the vaccinated potentially being prioritized for treatment on the assumption that they’re more likely to survive.

On the flip side, seems people are starting to finally wake up and getting vaccinated at a higher rate.
It is discussed in there the highest influx of cases are people in their 20s and 30s that are otherwise healthy. Maybe the realization that they are not indestructible is finally hitting home.

I thought that too, but then I like the idea of people willing to help themselves getting helped first so I'm not going to ask questions.Wouldn't it, from a purley medical standpoint, make more sense to treat the unvaccinated?

Amazing what empirical evidence can do.
Why are all those vaccinated people doing normal stuff and not getting sick, while all of unvaccinated people are getting sick?
Maybe I should get the vaccine too?

The actual definition of 'triage' is prioritizing care in such a way as to maximize the number of survivors. To the extent that unvaxxed patients get hospital care at all in this situation is kind of annoying at this point tbh.Wouldn't it, from a purley medical standpoint, make more sense to treat the unvaccinated?
You made your bed. Die in it.

last year, weren’t hospitals prioritizing young, in shape people over old, out of shape people for the same reasons?
COVID-19
Yes. And a year ago, before we had pre-infection intervention options, it was tragic seeing Drs having to make those calls.
Today, with 3 different vaccine options available, dying from COVID is much more of an opt-in kind of thing. Sure, there are instances where good-faith actors are getting sick; give them all of the medicine their bodies can handle. The dickwads who are taking a 'principled stand' or awaiting 'full FDA approval' for vaccines that have 10,000x more doses in arms than any test vaccine in history can f**king die and rid us of the burden of their existence already.

What’s the census on parents getting their kids’ vaxxed? Personally I’d like to wait about a month but my wife is more hesitant. I think she’ll eventually want them to get it, but is worried about some of the heart issues.

I'm not a parent but my thought is that yeah there's a chance for heart issues if you get the vax but there's a chance of much worse issues if you get COVID
