Vera Juarez was a surgeon at City General Hospital in the 21st century.
Biography
She performed emergency surgery on Rex Matheson, correcting damage to his pericardium, major veins and arteries. She also alerted Esther Drummond to the medical miracle that was going on around the world. Through her contacts at various hospitals around the United States and Great Britain, she was able to determine that no one had died for over 24 hours — a statistical impossibility. (TW: The New World)
The following day, Juarez was overseeing her ER when she had a revelation: the nature of the miracle meant that the entire triage system was now backwards, due to patients being unable to die. Long-term care was now the priority; patients in "critical" condition would have to be temporarily ignored in favor of getting patients with minor injuries out of the medical system. Hoping to spread this insight, Juarez attended a conference in Washington D.C., where she realized that infections would become disastrous due to being able to indefinitely grow inside never-dying hosts. While there, she received a call from Rex, who explained that the only mortal man on Earth had been poisoned with arsenic, and talked Rex and Gwen Cooper through treatment. Once the man, Jack Harkness, had been stabilized, Rex asked Juarez to meet him at the airport when he returned. On her way out, Juarez was accosted by Jilly Kitzinger, who mentioned that Juarez would need to work to repeal legislature restricting antibiotic access and offered Juarez her card. At the airport, Juarez only briefly met Rex, who was being pursued by the CIA, before being left behind. (TW: Rendition)
