People in a medical crisis don't need gawkers who might publish their photos on the internet to add stress. Paramedics also sometimes need to remove clothing from patients, and I've heard multiple stories of paramedics having to take time to hold up sheets to protect patient privacy rather than, you know, actually doing medical things.

(I know this isn't your photo, Adam, and I'm glad that unlike LiveBoston you chose not to publish one that showed the patient's face... just a general request.)
