A former longtime Alabama senator had a chilling final message before he died of COVID-19 last week: “We messed up.”

Larry Dixon, 78, contracted the bug during an outdoors hangout “with a couple of guys” two weeks ago — and his worsening condition left him on a ventilator, his close friend and pulmonologist Dr. David Thrasher told NBC News.

Dixon’s wife Gaynell Dixon told Thrasher that her husband issued one final plea before his death.

Not always, often they are encouraging and uplifting.

If he was on a ventilator - he had no last words. Unless he said all this beforehand. I know someone who’s last words were ‘ they cheated ‘

Yup, they downplayed HCQ and other meds that could deal with the virus and let rpeople die from it instead.

What is a pulmonologist?


pulmonologist is a physician who specializes in the respiratory system.

From the windpipe to the lungs, if your complaint involves the lungs or any part of the respiratory system, a pulmonologist is the doc you want to solve the problem. 

Pulmonology is a medical field of study within internal medicine.



Hmmm.

Does he know for SURE that he got it in this “hang out”? Even if these guys had the virus, there’s no guarantee he got it from them.

78 is a pretty good run. People that age clinging to office should accept that each day is a gift.

“..Yup, they downplayed HCQ and other meds that could deal with the virus and let people die from it instead....”

They needed the high contraction rate and high death count in order to kill the juggernaut Trump economy.
The bassturds likely colluded with the CCP on the planned release since they had the same goals...two peas in the same pod, and they’ve likely been on HCQ since a week before the release. Every hear of a high echelon RAT dying from this crap? Remember those millions of doses that India donated to the USA...yeah, me too. While at the same time, vehemently denying the same simple medicine to the “unwashed masses” because they needed those high kill rates, hyped-up panic etc. to kill the economy and allow fraudulent mail-in voting.
There’s a whole bunch of folks that ought to be doing the rope dance....Fauxi, for one.

Great point. I am sure that his last words were “Oh Shit”, just as he started to get a fever...or, if he were religious, “Holy Shit”...Then they strapped the ventilator on him.

The whole movie was based on trying to figure out who was this Rosebud who was so important to him to be his last word.

He died alone, how did they know what is last word was?
