INEXCUSABLE: 46 Year Old US Veteran DIES of HIGHLY TREATABLE Gallstone Pancreatitis After Hospitals in Multiple States REFUSED TO ADMIT Him; Denied Life-Saving Surgery Because “Beds Were Full” of Covid Patients

Daniel Wilkinson – A 46 year old US Army veteran in Texas – has tragically and needlessly passed away because no hospital would admit him to perform an emergency surgery that could have saved his life from a highly treatable condition.

“He Loved his country. He served two deployments over in Afghanistan, came home with a purple heart, and it was a gallstone that took him out.” Michelle Puget, Wilkinson’s grieving mother told CBS.

My friends do you really think someone will answer for this? Think again. Confusion and inefficiency are part of the plan. Think bureaucratic snafu. Case closed.

Talk to your doc, but plan on the surgery getting canceled.

Texas ran out of medical oxygen this week and is taking commercial lox.

If they are doing that, you are at the bottom of the priority

There should be hell to pay. If that were my son I’d make sure of it.

Hospital needs suing into oblivion.

Only certain areas of the hospital have high bed counts.

The vast majority of other areas of the hospitals do not.

They could accomodate people in other areas, put people in non icu/er areas and simply treat them in those spaces/beds.

Something doesn’t sound right about this story. Obviously he was in worse shape than expected. Why didn’t he go for treatment sooner?

During the initial start of the Pandemic, when there were no elective surgeries, my friend’s brother could not get a cardiac stent placed for 5 weeks at a major Ohio hospital.

“>99% unvaccinated in the hospital and 100% UNVACCINATED in CRITICAL CARE.”

I don’t believe you.

Everywhere else in the world the seriously ill are 70% or higher vaccinated.

Perhaps you think you are serving some higher purpose with those lies.

See post 3.

Are you also going to try to gaslight us and tell us that surgical suites or outpatient surgery facilities are also filled with Covid patients and that’s why they couldn’t do emergency surgery?

Not buying what you’re selling..

We’re just not seeing that kind of stuff here. 16% rise in cases down here since May 11th.

Not discounting this death but I am seeing these narrative a lot the last few days - hospitals are full of unvaxxed and people can’t get in who need help.

There was a similar story on my local Nextdoor website today. It turned into a real brawl on there. All of the people who responded about the MRNA dangers had their posts removed by Nextdoor for being “political”. Go figure.

This is how socialist medicine works. The government decides who lives and who dies. That’s what I’ve paid over $200,000 in taxes for the healthcare of liberals.

100% Bullsh!t. The hospital beds are not 100% capacity. The ER beds are. There is sero excuse for a surgeon to not see this man, and operate on him. Its a relatively easy procedure. My sister had it. A surgeon cant help a COVID patent. I’m betting the issue was with a VA hospital.

it continues to be >99% unvaccinated in the hospital and 100% UNVACCINATED in CRITICAL CARE.

First off, everyone is un-vaccinated. It is NOT a vaccine. If the people pushing this want to have a reasonable discussion they need to stop lying about what it is.

I am skeptical of the assertion that all these victims are the un-Jabbed. Why? We have been lied to so much thus far I take nothing from the Jab crowd at face value.

but the hospitals are running at more than full at least in the southeast region.

At my wife's hospital, there are staffing shortages due to their mandated vaccination. People have left. Also, vaccinated staff have tested positive for Covid and are sidelined. Elective surgeries that require hospitization are canceled.

They are trying to lure travel nurses at $2500 a week. Bottom line is that this has been mismanaged. Also note, that this hospital often runs at capacity or over capacity regardless of Covid.

Yep. The data out of the UK and Israel particularly. I do suspect there is a higher proportion of unvaccinated COVID patients in border states, though... wonder why that is?

Clearly you have no idea what the patient flow is through a hospital — this patient was not an outpatient surgical candidate — based on the reading of the OP he was in septic shock with MOSF (renal dysfunction, liver dysfunction). Secondly a patient has an operation in a surgical suite — they dont stay there — they need a bed on ICU / PCU / or med-surge — when those beds are filled what would you like done with them?

I really dont care your not buying what the truth is about hospital flows and patient care, but being a self proclaimed expert such as yourself is a meritorious position, at least in your book.
