Statistics
- "In Los Angeles, a recent audit of the 911 system reveled
that about 85% of the 3.6 Million calls a year
that flood that system were not actual emergencies."
Source:
Erri Emergency Services Report, August 16, 1997
- "Nationwide between
50 to 90 percent of the calls to 911 are deemed non-emergencies."
Source:
Erri Emergency Services Report, August 16, 1997
- "Last year (1996), an estimated 180,000
calls went unanswered in Los Angeles." That means if 10% of the calls
were emergencies then 18,000 true emergency calls were not answered. How
many of these died needlessly?

Erri Emergency Services Report, August 16, 1997
- In 1996 "the city of New York installed a
new $156 million state-of-the-art 911 system only to find out
that some callers were being put on hold for as long as eight minutes."

- "Fewer than four
percent of cardiac arrest patients will live to be released from the hospital." Source:
The Observe, Sarnia, Ontario, November 26, 1998
- "If someone is
there (trained in CPR) when you collapse, your survival rate doubles or triples"
Source:
The Observe, Sarnia, Ontario, November 26, 1998
- "You had less than
eight minutes to get help for a cardiac victim". "Every
minute that elapses after
cardiac arrest lessens your chance for surviving".
