According to another article, staff tried for ten hours to revive the kid (is it normal to do that for that long?), but without success.
Wow, that seems...excessive. Say they'd succeeded-- after being deprived of oxygen for nine hours, what kind of brain function would be left? Not a quality life IMO, but if that's accurate, I'm sure it was only performative: "It's an infant, we have to prove we did everything we can." Because life is less valuable as it ages, #truefacts.

I'm not horrified by infanticide. I think it should be done with minimal pain, and abortion is always preferable, but I don't have any moral objection. I feel that the gulf between infancy and self-awareness is far greater than the gap between infant and fetus, and more relevant when it comes to evaluating personhood.
