Fuck that.She said: "There are a lot of young people in our Intensive Care Units (ICUs) - our youngest is a 38-year-old who had had no comorbidities (underlying health problems).
"A lot of patients need help with breathing but there are not enough ventilators.
"They've told us that starting from now we'll have to choose who to intubate - priority will go to the young or those without comorbidities.

As ever Lewis Hamilton's take on all this is a good laugh.
I really hope we go through the weekend and don't see any fatalities
Says the man who makes a living from an unreasonably dangerous and essentially pointless activity. Let's hope.
He’s a proper twat.
I was meant to be attending a gig in Stockholm tomorrow but it's been cancelled as the Swedish government (from what I can gather) have put a ban on public gatherings of 500 people or more. While we just let Cheltenham and whatnot go ahead regardless. I'm not on the panic bandwagon at all, but that did sort of put the perhaps slightly lacking scale of our response in perspective for me.
McLaren have withdrawn from the Aussie F1 this weekend.
La Liga suspended for 2 weeks.

The next 4 weeks are going to be a boring as fuck. No sports at all. Time to start a new FM game.
Ireland now closing schools and colleges from tomorrow until the 29th.
The entire Real Madrid team are now in quarantine.
This is proper end of days response stuff, thankfully with a lot less death.
Remember what I said about golf being the last to react? Well, I'm pleased to inform you that Rory Sabbatini leads the Players Championship at one under par in front of a full gallery.
LOCKDOWN from 6pm. Aside from schools and childcare, indoor gatherings of 100 and outdoor of 500 are out the window too.
I’d Mick Flannery tonight myself but wasn’t going to go anyway. Hopefully it’s cancelled so I can have my money back.
EDIT: Actually it’s next week so it’s bound to be cancelled anyway.

An unnamed PL club has three players showing signs of this and the whole team have been tested. Results tomorrow.
Probably Arsenal.
I thought it was interesting, going off that global stats/tally website thing that, of the 434 active cases in the UK at the moment, not a single one is considered serious or critical, which I take to mean that there are currently ZERO people in hospital in the UK with coronavirus. NHS in crisis! How will we cope? Shut down everything!
I can only assume the Irish think there might be some sort of EU handout for this and don't want to miss the boat on it by being open for business.
We've also been at 400-odd cases for about 3 days now. The scoreboard updater must have caught it.
It really isn't anything to worry about.Death toll jumps in Spain
Coronavirus-related deaths and infections have jumped in Spain.
New daily figures, released by the country’s health ministry, show 84 people have now died - an increase from 47 on Wednesday.
It added that there was 2,968 confirmed cases of coronavirus in the country.
Big Thief. It was meant to be at a place called Debaser, if that means anything to you? They had four dates left on the European tour (two in Sweden and then one in Norway and one in Denmark) and they've just cancelled the remaining gigs and (presumably) gone home. It's to be expected, I guess.
I don't know whether to still go to Stockholm or not to be honest. It was only a really short trip. Fly out tomorrow morning, fly back Saturday night.
*comes back with no hair and two bumholes*
Add the Leicester team to those showing symptoms. This is fun. Jamie Vardy is fucked
Another 130 cases yesterday and two more deaths, so we're up to 590 for 10 now.
In the spirit of Pep's cartoon thing, I'd like to know what the plan is. Other than buying copious amounts of toilet roll I can't see that we've done a single thing differently to date.
I hate when I log on and see Yev as last poster. You just know there's been another mass death.
For those of us that play it 2pm is the new 6pm content drop from FIFA, with possibly just as much incompetence, but more death.
11% has been wiped off our share price today. 40% lower than it was a month ago now.
If anyone gets the tip that we're going on lockdown, get it in here.
ATP tour shut down, WTA tour to follow suit.
Are they still knocking balls about on the green Jim?
Well we've just been told we're all working from home from tomorrow until whenever they tell us otherwise.
It does seem like the levies broke today on a wider scale when it comes to actions taken.
I've been sent to work from home. It's nightmarish, I'm never getting anything done.
Football suspended until the end of March in the Netherlands, and indefinitely in Portugal.
MLS is apparently about to announce an indefinite suspension also.
The closure of all schools and Uni's here has been extended to end April.
Still only 39 cases, and most of them due to 2 idiots coming into the country and lying about their locations (Italy).
I'm still supposed to go to work, but I have decided that I am staying home for at least a week or two.
Rumours at my work suggest it's been decided the company can't support working from home.
Business is absolutely rampaging this week, at least in the markets I run. No one gives a fuck.
Maybe bearings are the new toilet roll.
I shamed a woman in the supermarket today into putting back one of the three massive packs of toilet roll she could hardly handle by laughing at her predicament.
I then panic-bought a slab of Irn-Bru.
The GAA have at least done it right here with no grey areas. All games and training from under 10 club up to senior inter county is knocked on the head.
Fuck, I bought no fizz.
And, as if to conflate things with an earlier tangential comment of mine holy shit.
I bet they can smell the corpses.
I bought 60 cans of Coke Zero.
Priorities.
Michel Roux has died.
Are you sure? Was he tested? Long standing lung condition you say?!?!?!?
