And once again, the American healthcare system kills a patient…
* profitcare system
Doesn’t deserve the word “care” either. They don’t care for shit. They discharge you and leave you unable to care for yourself without any help.
Very much so.
Well no. While that does happen often. Failing to save someone isn’t causing their death.
In this specific case, they simply failed to save someone they could have. Nothing they did was the cause of this kids death.
The difference is, if the mother kept the kid home, it would have all played out the same.
When the healthcare system kills someone. They would have survived if they stayed home. Or at least died of something different.
“…he had a lack of appetite, weakness, fatigue and severe dizziness, and these symptoms were getting worse…”
“…he had Covid, and, while the fever went away after a week, the toddler never fully bounced back…”
“…he came down with RSV (respiratory syncytial virus). Although common, RSV was particularly virulent that year because it hadn’t been circulating as much during the lockdown years…”
”…Eventually, the doctors confirmed Micah had an enlarged heart and blood clots on his liver…”
”…A blood clot had travelled to Micah’s lungs, causing a pulmonary embolism. His heart had stopped beating and they couldn’t revive him. Nothing could be done…”
Wow, that’s so sad.
