When it is factually correct?

Nice guidelines are recommending priority treatment depending on economic value frailty of humans.

Why should it be sugar coated?

We received a fair number of complaints about the thread title, so we edited to something a bit less sensationalist.

Our intention is to keep the conversations flowing, so we made a small edit in order to keep things on track. Flowers

Could the alteration have reflected concern for the disabled in society?

The replacement title wipes out any recognition for the disabled

@soniamumsnet

Its not about economics vs public health. It is absolutely about the government allowing the disabled to die in accordance with nice guidlines. The title doesnt reflect concern for Disability rights at all.
