This is pretty sad

They should have been able to protect the hospital instead of doing what they did. We should have had troops on the ground within hours of the hurricane passing.

The title of the article was "We had to kill our patients"... Yet after reading the article, I couldn't find where the doctors or staff killed anybody. I also watched a doctor being interviewed in TV and he told of nurses inserting IV's into each other just to remain hydrated.

Is comforting a patient by giving him/her pain medication killing them? Is having compassion for the dead and dying killing them? No it isn't. I guess the reporter would have had the medical staff ignore the patients pain, and just let them suffer. About all these people (doctors & nurses) could do was comfort the sick and dying. They were completely out of resources, with no more on the way. No power, no food, no water, no nothing...

That article is complete BS. The reporter, publisher, and owner of this publication ought to be ashamed. They should be sued.
