Mom had an emergency Thanksgiving eve. As much as we have been avoiding hospitals, she had some kind of internal bleeding and she had to go in.
ER doc asked about her vaccine status and when she told him no vaccines, he got pissed and started to berate her. I made him stop, got her thru the intake process and off she goes to her room.
They have resolved her issue and she is slated to come home tomorrow. She just called me in a panic because the patient across the hall just passed away - from COVID. She has been there for 4 days.
Luckily, I have an appointment with our doc on Monday morning and am hoping to get Ivermectin as prophylaxis to head off any bad germs that may have gotten to her (or me as a visitor).
My question... why on earth would they have a COVID patient with non-infected patients? I know they won't take responsibility if she were to catch it.
Sorry. So pissed right now.
If this person really had COVID-19, they wouldn't have put him/her in an area where there were non-COVID-19 patients...at least one would hope! This is why I suspect it was a complication from the jab.
I know that in a large hospital here, which had plenty of space apparently, they basically made one hallway "covid unit" and the next hall off the nurses station was "other" and practiced isolation for all. Which is fine except all new patients were put on the "covid" side until proven to be "other." And as it is airborne, the real isolation has to be in the AC.
When the nurses came to moms room, they had the typical mask and gloves. When they went into the other room, it was additional PPE. Mom s door could stay open, the other not. Mom heard the nurses arguing at the desk about the patient and them yelling at the husband trying to quarantine him since he had been in her room all day. Major loud fight.
In any case, I called and had her discharge papers written up. She was home by 10am. Had some of my homemade turkey broth and is doing well. Will definitely watch both of us for any symptoms of coof. Talking to her NP in the morning about prophylaxis.
I'm glad to hear you got her out of there. Your mother will do much better at home.
No we do. We have no choice, there aren’t any beds we put them wherever
