Yes, the moral choice – do nothing – leads to the expectation of the death of both.This is a horrible scenario to have to consider.
In a different but similar context one may consider the modified lifeboat dilemma. A lifeboat for one has two aboard and the overload is sinking the craft. One of them is terminally ill and weak. May the other throw the weak one overboard? No.
