‘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.”

Just go die somewhere on your own.

Please feel free to take your own advise.

“Thinning the herd” is precisely what the globalists want. They desire the world’s population to be reduced to around 500 million people. For the good of the planet and the animals, doncha know!

She’s.

The latest reporting data show that no young people have died in Alabama this month or last month.

And she’s going to let the anesthesiologist intubate the patient.

Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus.

> If you didn’t get a vaccine, you don’t get expensive medical care. Just go die somewhere on your own. <

That’s a bit harsh, and I’ll tell you why. 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.

So I have sympathy for those folks who get vaccinated, and suffer for it. And I have sympathy for those folks who don’t get vaccinated, and suffer for it.

It’s just too darn tough for most folks to wade through all the noise, and then make the “right” decision (whatever that decision might be).

Hospitalist: A dedicated in-patient physician who works exclusively in a hospital.

I know several and they are real doctors (as opposed to fake doctors like Biden’s wife).

patients too stupid to get a safe and effective vaccine

Tell that to the people who incurred Guillain-Barre, a neurological disorder after they got shot up with the J&J vaccine.

Me too ... until I looked it up.

Hospitalist –

Defined physicians who have dedicated their careers to hospitalized patients.” Simply put, hospitalists are medical specialists who most often earn a residency in internal medicine and are certified in hospital medicine.

"But they can’t. So they thank me and they go get the vaccine."

They don't sound like they are dying if they can go get the vaccine. Especially after he says they can't.

A Hospitalist is a doctor that has completed medical school and an internal medicine residency, but nothing further, and is now on staff for a hospital as a general internist. Legitimate position, but lower on the doctor hierarchy.

A look around WalMart shows a plethora of obese people from all ages. Walmart is a Obesity magnet apparently.You see an grossly overweight woman in a motorized cart in the candy aisle stretching to get some sweets. Last night we went for a drive to see the blood orange moon and as I drove by the park there was a obese teenager/early twenties boy sucking on a flute shaped pipe. I assume he was vaping (I know nothing about vaping so it could have been a bong). A large part of the population is unfit and unhealthy.
