Non covid covid death

So they must have found something in her blood that was giving a problem for her heart.  It's SO stupid that they wouldn't admit her and do something about it.  Too bad you can't sue them for not doing something when they knew it was a real problem.
Because of the stupidity of this whole fiasco, things like this are happening.
My prayers go out to the husband and entire family. 

I sure as hell don't know what kind of sick sadistic doctors some people are exposed to.

My wife is a Critical Care Unit nurse, and has been treating Covid patients all along. NO DOCTOR in any of the health system that includes some of the bigger cities is "pushing people to ventilators". Because yes, there are likely complications, and therefore, are a last resort, as they are always a last resort when somebody will die from not breathing, Covid or not a last resort.

There's protocol for this. First they get the little oxygen stream under the nose. Then go to a Bipap machine, with various settings, always being monitored for pulse-ox. Then if absolutely necessary, yes, a ventilator, and wean as soon as possible. Also, NOT left on their back, they are rotated frequently, has always been the protocol.

And oh by the way, not one person in the hospital here has died from vent complications since March. In my wife's near 20 years on the CCU, I don't think she's lost one to vent complications. Maybe one or 2 that was dang sick, surely would have died from not breathing anyway. If you don't want to be ventilated or have your loved ones ventilated, this is what Do Not Resuscitate orders are for. Otherwise, medical staff will do whatever they can in their power to keep you alive, including hook you up to a machine to keep you breathing. That IS their job.

You wonder where the helicopter to rush her to Walter Reed was?

A child here was noted as the First under 18 in MO to die from CV19.  NOTHING even hinted at as to underlying medical conditions just the virus.  A child in IL as well was noted as the only known under 18 there, hinting at the virus taking more underage persons as a change up.  This morning they showed photos of the two, BOTH weighed MORE than I do now(OVER 250) BOTH had chronic Hi Blood Pressure, Excessively High Cholesterol and were determined Morbidly Obese at 14 years of age.  Heart disease present in BOTH.  Both seriously INACTIVE.

Let alone the ones that got shot,

Heck, you guys are just BEGINEERS !!!!  WE have CHITCAGO !!! 10-12 SHOT DEAD every weekend !!... 5-600 a year !!   WE ARE #1 !!! and yes, a lot of "bystanders and kids" get in the crossfire..............OH... and it WAS ILLEGAL for 99 % of the people in Chitcago to own a gun ! ( the State got SUED over the 2nd amend and now you CAN OWN  IF you jump thru several hoops)...
