Yep. A bad day of construction-laden rush hour traffic in Columbus is BETTER than a construction-free off-hours jaunt through Atlanta.Brian D. wrote:...
But hey, now our Ohio CHL's are good in Georgia, so it was pretty much business as usual for me. Until trying to get OUT of that city before their afternoon work traffic mess gets going full bore. A reminder that I shouldn't carp too much about the same thing here in Cincyland.

How do you suggest we in emergency medicine sort out those who have had their "once chance" at resuscitation from those who haven't? Branding? ID chip in their skin? We get calls about unconscious people sometimes where no one makes mention of the cause. And perhaps the needles etc. have been put out of sight. So we do push Narcan at some point during the respiratory/cardiac arrest protocol, and supposing that's when they come back around? Are we supposed to say "Hey, wait a minute, you OD'd on us a couple months ago, we thought it was a heart attack this time. Fred, get me a scalpel, I'm retrieving our Narcan out of this guy!"Bama.45 wrote:Tru-Heathen wrote:Or eventually he'll get a "hot fix" with fentanyl in it and the problem goes away for good.

Maybe not with norcam being readily accessible now... Which I strongly disagree with, it sends a message of keep on using. Just have some antidote with ya.. Personally, I think junkies should get one chance at being revived by first responders.. If they don't learn their lesson then... They're SOL when they OD the second time.. I have no sympathy for junkies, they put themselves in the hell they live in.
