What are the differences? Also you know generalisimo is just being provocative. Why hagel over the percent? He is just putting out bait and the fish in your bucket keep biteing.

No, what I mean is that it is very unlikely to work.
What part of "There's no point in going on if the chances are so small" means "it is very unlikely to work"?

I don't think this has anything to do with socialized medicine. Every system, socialized or not, will try to save an infant's life regardless of anyone's ability to pay for it.

I'm very skeptical that in the UK they won't treat a baby born at 22 weeks. I need something more than a facebook entry to convince me of that.

If it's true though, it's reprehensible.

Initially you said that we shouldn't treat an infant with a 10% survival chance because the odds of survival are so slim.

Then, you changed to: Okay, we can treat him, but just realize that it's probably not going to work.
