snow flurries starting in Arlington now

Mass Turnpike speed limit is now 40 MPH from NY to Millbury

medevacs cant fly - traffic is slow - might be a good time to put more
medic units on the road - unless its useless

lets think about that

15 minute ALS response time vs 8 minute ALS response time

if victim is not breathing for 15 minutes, then they are dead

if an airway can be placed in 8 minutes - and the patient can be
sedated - then maybe you can buy an hour of transport time to get to
an OR

right?

I am thinking that BLS really cant do too much for critical cases -
even if they arrive in 2 minutes - except for witnessed cardiac
arrest, and epi pen cases

Maybe I am wrong. Maybe BLS can do alot of good for severe trauma
case. Oxygen and transport.
