I am in shock and have been crying a lot. All I know is she was not vaccinated, did have some medical issues, was sick for a week, and went to the emergency room. They said she had healthy vitals (she did have co-morbidities and was older). Very shortly thereafter they said she took a turn for the worse and put her in ICU. She died early this morning.

Ask if the infection was bacterial and if any antibiotics were administered. My dad was septic last week but tested negative for Covid 4 times. They gave antibiotics since the Covid tests were coming back negative. When the 5th test came back positive, they wanted to switch to Remdisivir and steroids even though antibiotics were working. No doubt in my mind if he had tested positive on the first test, he would not be alive today because they wouldn’t have given antibiotics for what we now know was a bacterial infection.
Well I don’t have oxygen tanks just hanging out in my house but thanks for your input
I now see, since it finally happened to someone I love, that there are many people that can't avoid the hospital. My friend told me a story of someone she knows. He went in with a broken bone and they killed him with the remdisivir within a week or so.
Best fast source of O2 is aviation oxygen. You can get it mail order quickly. Cylinders are small, meant for individual use in light aircraft. Did my father a world of good when he needed it.. There are also the filter type oxygen concentrates using a zeolite as a filter that gets periodically back-flushed. These are pricey though, couple hundred $.
