@waq0r For some context: I think, the decision was made following a request of disabled people questioning if their lives will be valued less in a triage situation compared with a 27 y football player with CoVID requiring intensive care who did not get the vaccine.

Oh wow😲 in a side note to their decision on COVID triage, Germany's constitutional court may have shut down any attempts to implement the QALY once and for all (not that it ever had a real chance). There doesn't seem to be an English translation, but what it says is basically is

@waq0r @ajhatswell I like that explanation. Maybe the underlying ethical principles are what is driving these decisions. Maximising overall benefit or a patient centred making the right decision in that moment for that patient approach. I am a bit torn between the two though.

@ajhatswell Well, it's a different paradigm, I suppose, Kantian, not utilitarian. Another example: in Germany, the state may not shoot down a hijacked airplane, even if it is about to be used as a weapon; the passengers are innocent and must not be killed.

@jhan2qt @waq0r I still miss QALYs… would be nicer to have something comparable between indications and also comparable to other countries. Or maybe allow QALYs as well as other measures.

@jhan2qt @waq0r It’s not that black and white. QoL does count but not measured as QALYs. In Germany the joint federal committee accepts loads of other generic and disease specific measures of quality if life. Just not QALYs. We all know a QALY is not a QALY. This is one way to approach it.

@waq0r so that implies: any therapy which does not prolong life expectancy of terminally ill but only their quality of life will not be reimbursed by German statutory health insurances...

New figures reveal Northerners were more likely to die from Covid-19, spent almost six weeks longer in lockdowns and were made poorer than the rest of England during the first year of the pandemic. Watch GMB now 👉 daytimelink.itv.com/GMB

It's the anniversary of a work away day, organised by @MattXSutton , when we had to make ping-pong versions of each other. @shing_lau bought an extra large ping-pong ball for my head 🙄🧐 I actually think it's very good 🤣 Thanks for the pic @LSBrinkman
