A second woman in less than a month has been denied the opportunity to have a life-saving organ transplant simply because she won't get vaccinated against COVID.
Leilani Lutali, 56, from Colorado has been denied the chance to have a kidney transplant after the hospital that would have been performing the operation refused to treat her because she hadn't had the coronavirus vaccine.
Lutali who has stage 5 kidney disease, desperately needs transplant to save her life but in September, Colorado health system UC Health took her off its organ donation list despite the fact she already had a donor lined up.
UC Health said that Lutali could only remain on the transplant list if she and her donor, Jamiee Fougner, 45, both got vaccinated against COVID.
Lutali, who was approved for the life-saving procedure at the end of August was informed that she no longer qualified to have the transplant performed just one month later.
'I was notified that because my donor and myself were unwilling to be vaccinated, that I would not be able to receive my transplant with UC Health in Colorado,' Lutali explained to Fox News on Thursday night.
'Initially, it was explained that the policy had changed. That was the major thing. And then when I began probing to understand what my options might be, the gist of it was they were trying to protect my health from coming in and not being vaccinated, that I would have certainly contract covid post-surgery.'
Lutali explained that she had already caught covid naturally in July and had antibodies against the infection but the hospital said that it didn't count.
She pleaded with them and offered to take a covid test prior to surgery or to allow for a religious exemption. At each turn, she was denied.

Lawsuit time.
Texas can declare war against Colorado.
Just throwing that out for discussion...
When Texas is ready to reestablish itself as the Republic of Texas, I am ready to move in.

Maybe it will be easier to move before they become independent. Maybe they will make immigration difficult.
This is above hospital staff level and comes from the hospital administration. They, in turn, are beholden to government at all levels for their very existence so they will do anything to keep the money and power coming in.
Doctors may not be trusted anymore. They use the Hippocratic Oath as toilet paper as they accrue power and money. Also, most doctors today are employees of major hospital corporations so to keep themselves employed they will follow the orders of the hospital/corporate boards. Independent doctors are actually losing their hospital credentials for not supporting the "Jab" so they can no longer have hospital privileges.
If you have not read; The AMA announced they were going to decertify any doctor in the country who prescribes Ivermectin or any other form of medicine that is not the "Jab."
we are rapidly being drowned in
Deep Doo Doo
Every administrator in that CO hospital should be lined up and sh.......
WWMD?
Not so much difficult as it would be "uncomfortable" for progs to try to sneak in. They probably would not be able to deal with The Firearms Avoidance Act mandating ownership of at least one firearm in each of the three primary firearms groups. Pistol, rifle and shotgun.
Plus those pesky Voter ID laws would REALLY get a fake conservative upset what with the bio-metric requirements and all.
.
If they voted blue in CO then TX should’ve rejected them.
they voted for this sh*t... let them enjoy the fruits of their efforts.
The movement of citizens from blue to red, needs to be vetted far more rigorously as illegals coming into the US. (Theoretically)
Colorado physicians can’t spell Hippocratic.
Are you sure? I would have thought that there would be plenty of room for conservatives around Austin, for example. Perhaps you should check again.
Millions would be ready to move in, hard working patriots Texas could use. Trust me.
