A partir de septiembre, si alguien en Clemmons, Carolina del Norte, llama al 911 para pedir ayuda porque una persona está sufriendo un paro cardíaco, el primero en intervenir en la escena podrá ser un dron que lleve un Desfibrilador Externo Automático, o DEA. “La idea es que el dron llegue varios minutos antes que los primeros socorristas”, como un técnico en emergencias médicas o una ambulancia, dijo Daniel Crews, vocero de la oficina del sheriff en el condado de Forsyth, donde se encuentra Clemmons. La oficina del sheriff está llevando adelante este proyecto en alianza con los servicios de e...

Justo después del mediodía del 18 de junio, líderes de Massachusetts descubrieron que el sistema estatal de emergencias 911 estaba fuera de servicio. Fue cuando comenzó una carrera para manejar la crisis. La policía envió mensajes de texto con números alternativos al que las personas podían llamar, la alcaldesa de Boston, Michelle Wu, habló sobre la interrupción del 911 en una conferencia de prensa por el desfile de campeonato de los Celtics, y funcionarios locales instaron a las personas a pedir ayuda activando las alarmas rojas contra incendios. Unas 7 millones de personas estuvieron por cer...

Just after lunchtime on June 18, Massachusetts’ leaders discovered that the statewide 911 system was down. A scramble to handle the crisis was on. Police texted out administrative numbers that callers could use, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu gave outage updates at a press conference outlining plans for the Celtics’ championship parade, and local officials urged people to summon help by pulling red fire alarm boxes. About 7 million people went roughly two hours with no 911 service. Such crashes have become more of a feature than a bug in the nation’s fragmented emergency response system. Outages hav...

Abigail Arellano keeps her son Samuel’s medical bills in a blue folder in a cabinet above the microwave. Even now, four months after the 11-year-old was shot at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl parade, the bills keep coming. There’s one for $1,040 for the ambulance ride to the hospital that February afternoon. Another for $2,841.17 from an emergency room visit they made three days after the shooting because his bullet wound looked infected. More follow-ups and counseling in March added another $1,500. “I think I’m missing some,” Arellano said as she leafed through the pages. The Arellanos are...

Crystal Hiwalker wonders if her heart and lungs would have kept working if the ambulance crew had been able to give her a transfusion as the blood drained from her body during a stormy, 100-mile ride. Because of the 2019 snowstorm, it took 2.5 hours to drive from her small town of Lame Deer, Montana, to the advanced trauma center in Billings. Doctors at the Billings Clinic hospital revived Hiwalker and stopped the bleeding from her ruptured ectopic pregnancy. They were shocked that she not only survived after her heart stopped beating and she lost nearly all her blood, but that she recovered w...
