Greece's economic woes mean that paramedics on the picturesque island of Samos are increasingly faced with the terrible task of deciding who lives and who dies.
On Sunday, Greeks vote in a general election for the second time in three years, with radical leftist Syriza leading the polls with a promise to renegotiate the international bailout that has imposed five years of austerity on the country.
