Define asap as a unit of time. As Being in a typical emergency waiting room for a life saving vaccine you could be waiting a full day.
Things that are faster than the emergency services:
Doing your taxes
Applying for residency
Applying for passport.
Applying for citizenship
Testing and buying a new car.
Getting a background check done
Waiting for the tv technician to arrive at your home when they give you an 8 hr waiting period and also the installation.
Being on hold with literally any service.
Getting any form of dental work done
Any sports game.
Painting a room
Doing a marathon
I worked in an ER. If you were rabies exposed they moved a lot faster than that.
And yet people still die waiting in ER.
Working in ER doesn’t trump people who have been in ER waiting/dying to be seen. There have been deaths waiting in ER and it’s dismissed as not important enough to change the situation. If anything, claiming you worked in ER and defending this shit is admittance to apathy and sociopathic tendencies
I worked in an ER for three years and health care for twenty, and I have yet to see anyone die waiting.
That’s because of a bias liability clause. legally you’ve been coached that anyone dying in the waiting room isn’t to do with the waiting room and should be defended that their death is unrelated so that you can absolve yourself of any liability.

Study 2021
The study you link has literally nothing to do with your claim.
Do you find it weird that people die in ERs sometimes, and it happens more often in overcrowded ERs, as the study you link suggests? Because that's what it's saying. That long triage times and short staffing leads to worse patient outcomes... And surprise, this study was in 2021, still peak COVID year.
Covid is still here dumbass. And the several issues they named aren’t even Covid related
Holy shit All the fucking excuses you just come up with. You are so full of shit. You don’t even work in an ER. Fuck off psychopath. Stay away from people.
Lol
Your reading comprehension is so, so bad
Yes if you come in walking and talking into the er youll wait there for a while.
Trust me if you come there with half your face stuck youll get the shot before you can say fast.
If you’re walking and talking you’re using the last mobility to get help. You can walk and talk in early stages of many things that you need to get to an ER for EARLY treatment such as rabies, sepsis, respiratory, cardiovascular and the longer they are in waiting time the more complications there are.
