Bystanders are less likely to give cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to women than men, particularly if the emergency takes place in a public area, according to research presented at the European Emergency Medicine Congress. The study also shows that in private locations older people, especially older men, are less likely to receive CPR.

The researchers don’t know what is causing this but it really troubles me.

    I can not believe what I’m reading… I mean.

    That must be an embellishment or something (I read the qoutes, but still, really!?). How can you be so ungrateful and ignorant at the same time?

    Also, that has to be an exceptionally rare case.
