Discuss the below:
Q: The hospital has asked you to be part of a resource allocation committee. This committee has to decide which four out of ten critical patients will receive immediate life-saving surgery; without surgery, all will die. This hospital only has resources for four patients. There is terrible weather and flooding; a hurricane is coming, so none of the patients can be transferred to another hospital.
What criteria (age, social standing, benefit to society, lifestyle, degree of sickness, etc.) would you use to make this decision?
