If they save the baby the mother will surely die, but then they can have another generation. I believe that when the man was presented a choice he said,"Save my wife." The rest of the staff wanted to save the child because it was the needs of that one that offset the needs of the others.

Just as an example, in that situation, i would have asked my wife to decide what she wanted, but if she couldnt choose, i would have probably saved the baby.
But anyway, im not really sure about this one. just think about it this way: what if you were one of the few?
