I’m not disputing that this isn’t triage, but I just wanted to clear something up about what triage is: Triage happens everyday in emergency rooms of hospitals. Just normal every day triage is sorting (= trier in french) the patients according to urgency of care and availability of resources. Someone bleeding out will be helped before someone with a broken bone for example.

I don’t know if there is a separate term for the kind of emergency triage where some patients are left to die because of insufficient resources.
