Are EMTs in NYC private contractors or paid by the city? Since they were susupended without pay they likely have no union so I am thinking the are private contractors. In which case would they get paid for going to help. What if they finished a 12 hour shift, and they are having lunch, should they then interrupt their break to go what is likely in NYC a prank or wasteful call?
This is obviously the 1/10 chance that the woman dies - I would need more information about work rules etc of NYC EMt before I condem them. What Mayor Bloomberg says carries no weight with me as he is looking for a soundbite and nothing more.
