This is criminal. Before Covid, 30k people died in the US every year from lack of insurance. God knows how many survived but went bankrupt. How many have died of Covid because of no insurance? This does not happen in the EU.
Aug. 14—FITZGERALD — After working in multiple ERs, Olga Alamilla, a registered nurse at the Dorminy Medical Center in Fitzgerald, now finds herself in the hospital in critical condition with COVID-19. Alamilla, who has two young daughters, is intubated. But because she worked in different ERs in the region, she is not eligible for insurance.
Alamilla's cousin has started a GoFundMe account to help cover the expenses of transferring Alamilla to a bigger hospital with an ECMO bed.
