I run emergency medical services and our response time to cardiac calls has increased by four minutes because of budget cuts and I know that means people are dying who would have lived but the city manager says we need to prove the correlation before we get more funding.
More people experience this than they realize.
People are dying from slower response times and officials want proof before they'll act.
