    This is where things are going to get real interesting if Hospitals need to start deciding who get a Ventilator and who doesn't. Nancy Pelosi at 80 years old or some 20 year old working a Jack in the Box, 90 Year old WW2 Veteran vs 30 year old Illegal alien, Warren Buffett or someone working at a Dollar Store, Donald Trump or Bernie Sanders. If it gets to the point they have WAY! to many Covid 19 Patients that are Critical and too few Ventilators, how's this all going to play out.
