A North Carolina medical student and trans rights activist seemingly bragged on Twitter about intentionally injuring a patient who mocked her for wearing a pronoun pin saying she/her.
Kychelle Del Rosario, a fourth-year student at Wake Forest University's School of Medicine, claimed to have purposefully missed the patient's vein during a blood draw so she would have to jab him twice in a since-deleted tweet.
'I had a patient I was doing a blood draw on see my pronoun pin and loudly laugh to the staff 'She/Her? Well of course it is! What other pronouns even are there? It?' I missed his vein so he had to get stuck twice.' Del Rosario tweeted Tuesday.
The medical school acknowledged online that it was aware of the incident, saying: 'This student's tweet does not reflect how Wake Forest University School of Medicine treats patients and provides patient care. We are taking measures to address this with the student.'
Since the tweet, Del Rosario has scrubbed her social media accounts.
It is unclear if any disciplinary action has been taken against Del Rosario, as the university did not immediately respond to DailyMail.com's request for comment.
Del Rosario's remark was made in response to a post from Ghanaian-American physician, cartoonist and author Shirlene Obuobi MD addressing transphobia.
Obuobj, who identifies as cisgender, explained that she has worn a she/her pronoun badge for a year to help patients and colleagues
In a thread addressing transphobia, Obuobj wrote those 'who fall under the trans umbrella feel a little more comfy.'
'In the last few weeks, several cis patients have berated me for it,' she added.
Del Rosario appears to have been an active advocate for the trans community.

FYI, this is the same hospital, Atrium, that refused a disabled veteran a kidney transplant because he wouldn’t take the covid vaccine. I have no doubt that she will graduate medical school and become a doctor. No doubt. The times we live in make me sick. And why would a respected medical school allow their students, teachers, nurses or doctors to wear pronoun badges? So unprofessional.
NOPE. Kick her to the curb. She has NO PLACE in medicine. This is an assault on a patient.
And criminally prosecuted.
Hideki Tojo would have been proud. What a lunatic.
Learn what an attention whore she is
I see the school is well staffed with pimps and whores for the faggot and anti Christ mongrels.
GaryCrow:
No, she should be expelled. She should not be allowed to become an M.D., she doesn't have the ethics or temperament to be a doctor.
Kick it out and make it pay back all the student loans.
Do we know if it is a she?
The medical community is no longer trust worthy. Stay alert, folks, to any doctor or nurse.
I am a physician. I know that sometimes it is difficult to get the needle into the vein. I have had my own veins missed, and I have missed some myself on the first--or maybe even the second--try. As a general rule, the person who has been finding veins for a long time is the best at doing it right on the first try. It might be someone who has been trained only to do that.
I have never known anyone to assault or inflict pain on a patient intentionally. If I did, I would not tolerate it under any circumstances.
I have fired only two people, a man and a woman, both for faking lab tests in separate incidents. As soon as I proved that they had done this, I fired them on the spot.
I’m a physician and not a lawyer, but I think that would constitute assault.
I will say that the nurse who did that was grinning. Even after I yelped, it was weird. And the whole squeezing the bag - really never had that happen ever before. There was a lot more to that whole morning that was very peculiar. I honestly wonder if they thought I was someone else.
I HAVE had a few really rough blood draws. One in particular, oh man! But it was clear that that woman was trying her best, she was so careful, but her best was very bad, LOL. It felt like she was drilling a screw into my arm.
