it is a shame Ruchi Freier did not take the interview as scheduled. Personally most of the things mentioned are not issues in my mind. Hatzala cant complain about issues like funding and response time and whatever else, if they do not let the organization grow. Most of those issues are things Hatzala probably had the same issues with when they were just getting started. Obviously an organization of 25 or 50 people is not going to be able to have the same response time as Hatzala, but as the organization grows that will improve. The anecdotal cases of people who died or nearly died are also not relevant. I am sure there are hatzala patients who have received bad treatment, wrong treatment, or even with the right treatment did not respond. not everyone is perfect, and not every case goes according to textbook - as long as that is not the norm (and I have no idea if it is or is not).
The one issue mentioned that is concerning, to me, is the experience and training. If they are going to go out on calls and try to save lives, they must have the proper training and experience required. If they are skipping that and sending novices into the field with nobody more experienced assisting, that is bad. I hope that is not the case.

She's a Judge. Not allowed to make public comments, like an interview. Should appoint someone as public spokesperson.
