ER Doc Describes The Horrific Reality Of Dying From Covid-19 | The 11th Hour | MSNBC

  1. Trump coronavirus turn the white house into coronavirus ghost house America 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  2. Guess the 210,000 dead “ _let_ COVID-19 dominate them.” Easy to say when you have the best health care in the world paid for by taxpayers.

    1. karmakazi219 Herman Cain (who was also 74) took 29 days from positive test to death and was tweeting that he was feeling good on day 27…
      Dr Li Wenliang took 40 days from diagnosis to death…

    2. But Hanoi Jane Fonda says a million dead from covid is a blessing to the left. This us all Trump’s fault. He went to Wuhan, created a Frankenstein virus and unleashed it upon the world. No way the inept governors and mayors did anything wrong. Nope all Trump’s fault.

  3. Back in March, while my mom was dying in hospice from Parkinson’s, I was in my apartment alone, with Covid. I got to talk to her once on the phone, she was mostly sleeping then. I didn’t get to see her or be with her because I had the virus. My job has ended and I haven’t seen anyone in almost seven months, I worry about the future and eviction, and can’t figure out how to grieve. Covid is more than just the Presidents over medicated mild case.

    1. Condolences and it was Feb for me, the illness lasted a little over a few months plus last six months to continue recovering. Likewise I had to completely isolate to protect my family plus now looking at finding a new job. Try not to lose hope and feel your pain my friend 😓

    2. @David DeVito Well he’s not doing anything to help his voterbase, so that’s a big L for his re-election

    3. @David DeVito Short answer – yes. So much American news is focused on your president (much more than any other non-dictator led country spends on news about politicians) that his telling the truth, and doing what was needed could have stopped the spread back in March. The fact is that so much power has been given one person in your system that in many cases no-one else had the ability to do what had to be done… such as closing national and state borders early.

    1. @Khadija.Toxirjon. Zòhro. Thank you once again for showing us to what extent religious are tolerant, open to the world around them and turned towards the future of mankind. Your god needs faithful people to defend the poverty of spirit, so keep up the good work.

    2. @Khadija.Toxirjon. Zòhro. what is there some sort of Abrahamic monopoly on Allah’s love towards his own sons and daughters amigo? Last I heard these religion’s of peace were intended to exemplify charity, tolerance and be motivated by kindness toward each other?
      Or is there acceptable exceptions when it suits individual agendas to denounce your teacher and his teachings?
      Best leave the judgement to a higher source incase one of those occasions finds you standing before said God himself!
      Many Blessings 2u 🙏✌

  4. If he really has corona, the great one isn’t out of it yet, he could take a turn for the worst..

  5. GOD BLESS YOU DOC !!! GOD BLESS ALL AMERICANS !!! SOOO CALLED PRESIDENT TRUMP IS THE WORST PRESIDENT EVER IN THE WORLD !!!!!

    1. gas prices have stabilized and manufacturing is returning to the USA from china…these are good things yea?

    2. @Brock Madigan Every president has SOME accomplishments. TRUMP’S JUST AREN’T ENOUGH to make up for his shitshow.

    3. Anthony Wolmarans – no china boy, I’m here to remind you how Trump is going to kick the bitter sad Dems’ a*ses. Enjoy the fact you have NO control of it.

  6. I’ve had the flu and when it was done I didn’t have irreparable damage done to my body. My buddy caught covid and now 5 months later he still can’t taste or smell and has lost some lung function so I’m pretty sure they aren’t the same.

  7. I’m a retired respiratory therapist, and I’ve seen many people die, and suffocating to death with lungs full of fluid from covid-19, it’s truly a horrible way to go!

    1. @Storm Ryder Maybe because Maine is too darn cold and people just shouldn’t live there — ESPECIALLY if the weather is killing that many people with flu.

    2. @Storm Ryder
      I live in Wisconsin, so we have long and very cold winters here too, and in all the years I’ve worked in the ERs, on the general patient population floors, and in the ICUs, I don’t now recall any patients dying from the seasonal flu! The hospitals I worked at were all huge and busy metropolitan hospitals too: St. Mary’s Hospital and St. Luke’s Medical Center in Milwaukee and Waukesha Memorial Hospital in Waukesha Wisconsin. I’m not saying there wasn’t any flu related deaths, but they sure weren’t in any significant numbers that I remember like the respiratory therapists, nurses, and doctors will be remembering covid-19 in 2020!

  8. Trump and his supporters who are not obeying the rules of wearing masks and social distancing are not only selfishly reckless, but making the medical profession very difficult. Listen to the medical experts. The whole world is watching

  9. The new Trumpshenko campaign slogan sweeping the nation, “He can’t protect the country. He couldn’t even protect himself.”

  10. It is what it is…..he knew what it was, he knew it was coming, he knew how contagious it is, he knew it wouldn’t just affect the elderly and he knew it was much more deadly than the flu yet he was compelled to gaslight ALL of us…. Ten months later he still is.

    1. @Sparky War your A 🤡 why you here *GTFOMF* Serial provoker……. 210,000 plus deaths you and 45 and his supporters are Delusional 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾

  11. This message needs to be aired every 30 minutes, nonstop, until we are able to stop this virus in its tracks.

    1. @Sparky War But they can be slowed to almost nothing. How often do we hear about H1N1 or Ebola these days? With a real plan, and cooperation, we can get COVID-19 to the same status.
