On the 60 minutes show referenced in the book it was not fair because Dr Pou and other nurses worked so hard to control the situation even though there were not enough supplies. The medical institution lost strength and its lower back-up generators had failed, leaving it without lighting, air conditioning, sewer systems, and crucial clinical devices.

It is important that Fink included the high profile murders and the murder rate in New Orleans because there were people murders and their were not sufficient evidence and the legal system was messed up.

I was not able to view the episode.

On the page 396-405 i found the historical perspective Mercy killing was very interesting and how doctors went through as we the nurse we save patients. The factors that are based on culture and demographics.

Dr pou’s attorney had a difficult time because there was not a useful guideline from AMA because of what a nurse should do in this situation. Dr Pou’s was trying her best to provide comfort to patients during hurricane Katrina.
