8. More precisely, Aktion T4

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aktion_T4

Aktion T4 (German, pronounced [akˈtsi̯oːn teː fiːɐ]) was a postwar name for mass murder by involuntary euthanasia in Nazi Germany.[4][ b] The name T4 is an abbreviation of Tiergartenstraße 4, a street address of the Chancellery department set up in early 1940, in the Berlin borough of Tiergarten, which recruited and paid personnel associated with T4.[5][c] Certain German physicians were authorised to select patients "deemed incurably sick, after most critical medical examination" and then administer to them a "mercy death" (Gnadentod).[7] In October 1939, Adolf Hitler signed a "euthanasia note", backdated to 1 September 1939, which authorised his physician Karl Brandt and Reichsleiter Philipp Bouhler to implement the programme.

7. It didn't have to be this way

But we're long past the time to rectify matters. We've all been driven into this cattle chute, and evil choices are going to have to be made. Ten patients, six ventilators. Five Covid-19 patients of various ages from 15 to 71. One patient with metastasized cancer, in the late stages. An AIDS patient. One severe mental retardation (who isn't the governor of Alabama). One 54-year-old advanced dementia patient. One 28-year-old patient with severe burns, a spouse and three kids.

Which six get ventilators?

Sounds like a new story problem for Alabama public schools. And the teachers won't have to say, "Oh don't worry, you'll never have to use this stuff; it's not like Algebra II or Calculus. You will for sure need to learn these lessons for later in life."
