    If someone gets their head cut off, triage likely won’t help anything…

    That doesn’t mean if someone cuts their hand cut off, you shrug and say they’re as good as dead already.

    Things are rarely binary, so saying a specific person is unsavable never means give up on every patient.

    A big part of triage is evaluating if you can save a specific person, or if they’re gone and helping someone else would be more beneficial overall.
