Who's to live and who's to die?

Archbishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk of Kyiv-Halych said in a homily on March 22 that the church will do everything possible to prevent doctors having to decide who should should live and die due to a lack of medical supplies.

What exactly does the archbishop mean? We should all be  doing everything to preserve life.

But if there are two patients in a room, one 90, the other 30 and only one can be saved, does it not make sense to save the 30-year-old person?
