FDNY response times are horrendously bad

the end-to-end combined average response time to life threatening
medical emergencies by ambulances and fire companies increased from
eight minutes and 30 seconds in early Fiscal 2021, to nine minutes and
23 seconds in early Fiscal 2022. The document addresses the increase
in response time but does not offer a discussion. One potential reason
for the increase is the uptick in life threatening medical emergency
incidents, which increased 13 percent from 168,184 in the first four
months of Fiscal 2021 to 189,933 in the first four months of Fiscal
2022.

(and this does not include the 4 minutes to go from the street to the apt)
