we have a problem houston
'this is the only level 1 trauma center within 150 miles radius of
memphis' - mentioned on this webpage 3 times
considering that helos probably travel at 120 mph - then it sure seems
that a huge area cannot be reached with a one hour transport time
basically - anyone who is more than 75 miles from the hospital is not
going to arrive within the golden hour
so the system is engineered to fail a certain number of people - the
people in the most rural areas
welcome to america
