Drugs is a choice. Obesity is, in the vast majority of cases, a lifestyle choice. Many modern health issues are a result of lifestyle/choice.
In a family member's big city nursing experience in the E.R. where she worked for several years, some of the most gut-wrenching situations she faced were O.Ds.
Almost daily times the cops brought in comatose druggies. What really made it insufferable was that the nursing staff got to know many of them on a first name basis. The druggies, not the cops. The cops hated it too. They were some of the biggest wussies in that room.
Once the druggie came thru the doors, the hospital had to do it all to try to keep them alive. Usually with success because we can. Just to see them go back out into the same rut.
Each one cost several thousand to service, plus whatever it cost the cops for their time and they had to stay there until the patient was stabilized and it was "safe" for the medical team.
These people could come out of their fix kinda crazy and sometimes quite violent.
Some real battles took place there but she was never injured, that we knew of.
One was brought in, had some real issues, went beserk, crapped on the floor, smeared her feces all over the room where they had locked her in, had to call in a special team to deal with her.
These "hospital patients" were all a result of choice. By the thousands, across Canada, all on our tab, and every day.
Should they just be cut off from any further assistance?
I don't know of anyone who gets the Wuhan Flu by choice. And those infected could have had exposure from a jabber spreader as easily as anyone, or perhaps even more so...
