I'd save Ellie for sure. Imagine how high was the chance for failure at a dirty, post-apocalyptic hospital with bare supplies and probably with medical personnel handling stuff that was way out of their league.

Why do you feel it's necessary to justify what Joel did? There was NO choice. This wasn't a story about saving humanity, it was a story about the road to redemption and Fatherhood. Joel just did what any Father would do and that's it. There's nothing beyond that other than the question of whether the lie was the right thing to do. 

The OP asked a question. You are supposed to put yourself in that situation and make the decision based on your own views. The Last of Us was about all those things but this question you have to answer knowing all the information available. That's the way I choose to answer it and justify it. Do you have a problem with that?.
