"There are a few caveats to this statement.
1. being per capita we have more available medical help. i.e ICU beds, trauma wards etc.
2. The Australian Army has a huge capacity to undertake overload well before triage reaches the levels of treatment vs non-treatment"
on point 1. ---------- no ---------- I ran through the ICU per capita numbers for France and Australia many months back - I thought they would be quite different - they are in fact - 'almost' exactly the same.
point 2. -------------- I assume you are saying that the Military has a large ICU capacity ------
that would be big news to me -------- please provide evidence
when I was serving - no way jose did we have a capability like you speak of - just no way.
I ran the casualty department in a major military hospital - we didn't have an ICU unit at all
I seriously doubt if that's any different in any scale now
