‘I’m sorry, but it’s too late’: Alabama doctor on treating unvaccinated, dying COVID patients
AL ^

Posted on 07/22/2021 8:47:09 AM PDT by MNDude

“I’m admitting young healthy people to the hospital with very serious COVID infections,” wrote Cobia, a hospitalist at Grandview Medical Center in Birmingham, in an emotional Facebook post Sunday. “One of the last things they do before they’re intubated is beg me for the vaccine. I hold their hand and tell them that I’m sorry, but it’s too late.”

“They cry. And they tell me they didn’t know. They thought it was a hoax. They thought it was political. They thought because they had a certain blood type or a certain skin color they wouldn’t get as sick. They thought it was ‘just the flu’. But they were wrong. And they wish they could go back. But they can’t. So they thank me and they go get the vaccine. And I go back to my office, write their death note, and say a small prayer that this loss will save more lives.”

WTF really wrote this garbage?

I do know this crap scares the sh*t out of some people who will then do things in a panic and fear overriding critical thinking and common sense and that's the goal.

Ba$tard should be imprisoned for not even using invermectin and other drugs.

When my family member had the Wuhan Flu, they told her to wait for a month before getting the vaccine.

I had it a year ago June. I was lucky, it was very mild except I lost my sense of taste and smell for well over three months. I know people who have become very ill and I know people who have died. I am still not getting the vaccine.

Ever notice how people don’t die at home from coronavirus? Why aren’t we finding all kinds of bodies in houses?

It’s because going to the hospital is what kills you.

“A hospitalist is a doctor who provides care for patients at a hospital. They have the same education and training as your primary care doctor, but specialize in providing hospital care.”

I’ve never heard that term. I bet it’s British, and the entire story is propaganda.

“There is a ton of misinformation on BOTH sides of the vaccine argument. Some of that misinformation is accidental. And some of it is deliberate.”

Exactly this. That’s why I’m holding off on vaccination, because I can’t reliably estimate the risk. I might eventually decide to take a vaccine, but I don’t know how to get de-vaccinated.

Hospitalist is an MD who usually works with chronically ill patients in hospital settings.

Feel sort of bad for these guys having to take care of patients too stupid to get a safe and effective vaccine who then show up in ICU expecting you to save their lives. I say screw em. If you didn’t get a vaccine, you don’t get expensive medical care. Just go die somewhere on your own.

You sound like someone who got the jab. When the bad side effects start, I hope that is what you are told. You sound like a democrat leftist.

“Why is she intubating people who can still breath well enough to talk to her?”

Careful, your critical thinking skills are showing.

“The last words they would hear from me would be:
“Give me zinc, HCQ and vitamin D! Or, I will come back and haunt your ass!””

I would adjust that and tell them that if they don’t, and I die, a kind of “countdown begins”.

I am glad you have not heard the term. Hopefully it is because you have not spent much time in the hospital.

I have heard it many times, during my stays in a hospital, or when staying with family members in the hospital.

What do you say to the stupid people who voluntarily became guinea pigs for the 3rd phase of mRNA trials, who end up in ICU dying? Do these trailblazing sheeple deserve more treatment than those who didn't want to be guinea pigs?

If anyone deserves what they get, it would be people who rushed out to volunteer to be the experimental test animals for companies who have NEVER created a successful, FDA approved, vaccine in the entire history of their existence as "pharmaceutical" companies.

But, I'm more of the belief that everyone deserves to get medical treatment, so long as they can afford their treatments.

Very sad that honest information was kept hidden from the world by the WHO, CDC and our government agencies, ...AND THE MSM!

Facts?

Preventative supplements were out there, Vitamin D3, Vit. C, Zinc and Magnesium were out there for about 10 cents per day dosage. Hundreds of scientific reports verifying the positive and preventative effects were out there from medical experts and being reported.

Cures for the sickness were out there, also from medical experts. Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine and Remdesivir. Given when diagnosed with the Covid it is generally gone within a week.

And the “NUMBERS?” - Look at the tragedy of thousands of sick people placed into senior living and nursing homes where so many more would knowingly become infected and die. So tragic that they passed away locked in isolation unable to have their family or friends with them as they died from the mistakes of those governors. And the reports are out there that more money was made from each of those deaths that could be attributed to Covid!

So on one side there are the vast majority of medical professionals, especially those with post doctoral peer-reviewed research in epidemiology, and a near unanimity of emergency room doctors, nurses, and public health professionals

and on the other side, a few medical cranks and a bunch of politicians and talk show hosts who barely have anything beyond a B.A.

And someone is having trouble deciding?

LMFAO

“They don’t want to vaxx? Die in the damned street,”

And yet, people are not dying in the streets despite the early Chinese fear porn of people dying as they walk down the sidewalk. They are not found dead in homes, or in cars.

Funny how they all die in hospitals.

My brother has been in the hospital for nearly 2 months. He went to the ER two times (and sent him home with Albuterol) before they admitted him finally on the third. I am convinced that had they not waited to treat him and then with proper therapeutics, it would not have gotten so bad. But their delay and that garbage Remdesivir ensured his death. As his life hung in the balance, one doctor stepped up and threw a fit that they weren’t doing enough and forced the attending physician to order ECMO therapy as a last ditch Hail Mary. That saved his life but he will never be the same. My wife and I will still not be getting the “vaccine”.
