In the wake of the tragedy, there was a single orthopedic specialist on duty, followed by a sole investigator.

In an unusual turn of events, the popular Portuguese podcast 'Isto é Gozar com Quem Trabalha', known for its humorous approach to interviews, has proposed a solution to address resource allocation issues, specifically in the aftermath of tragedies.

During their recent return from a vacation episode, host Ricardo Araújo Pereira and his team made a suggestion that could potentially revolutionise the way such situations are handled - the creation of a 'super orthopedinvestigator'. This idea was proposed to improve efficiency in handling tragedies, such as the Elevador da Glória tragedy, which occurred in Lisbon, Portugal.

On the night of the tragedy, only one orthopedic surgeon was on duty in the hospitals of greater Lisbon, and there was only one investigator for accidents of this type. The podcast team, who typically make fun of the people they interview, characterised the guests on their show as people with serious jobs, including ministers, businessmen, and bankers.

In episode 3 of the podcast, the guest returning from vacation is André Esteves, a prominent banker and entrepreneur. However, it's important to note that 'Isto é Gozar com Quem Trabalha' is not specifically focused on discussing solutions to resource allocation issues or tragedies like the Elevador da Glória tragedy. Instead, the show usually features guests from various professional backgrounds and makes light-hearted fun of them.

The suggestion to pair up the orthopedic surgeon and investigator was made to address resource allocation issues, resulting in only one salary being paid instead of two. This 'super orthopedinvestigator' would be a proposed solution to improve efficiency in handling such tragedies.

While the idea is still in the realm of discussion, it certainly sparks intrigue and raises questions about the potential impact such a role could have on the response to future tragedies. Whether or not this idea will be implemented remains to be seen, but one thing is for sure - 'Isto é Gozar com Quem Trabalha' continues to keep listeners engaged with its unique blend of humour and insightful discussions.
