Good Or Bad To Lie

For me, it is unethical

i agree. i think they hve the right to know n let thm handle thmslf n doc shld be there if anything happen to them

May be...
But also its depend on situation...
Its also possibl that uf tell the truth , that persn cant handle it nd may be we lost them also ... So for sake of this situation they lied bcoz the one person was already gone we cant change the fact but the other who lived we can try to save his/her life...

It's  a hard question ;a major concern in medical ethics and it has no simple answer. Any how you have raised a question even a medical professional may find it difficult to answer.
