If we’re denying emergency care to anyone, then they’d get my vote even before the anti-mask buffoons would. When neo-Nazis show up in emergency rooms, medical staff treat them as they would any other patient. We don’t parcel out care based on moral worthiness. Meeting — or refusing to meet — basic human needs based on an arbitrary standard of worthiness is the exact tool oppressors use. ADSo our system gives urgent medical care based on the urgency of the medical need.
