AFTER FIVE-DAY TREATMENT WITH REMDESIVIR, PREVIOUSLY HEALTHY PATIENT STARTS TO DETERIORATE

Colleen’s father, Donald, was 77 years old and in good health. He came down with Covid on January 6, 2021. On January 16, he ended up at Honors Hospital in Scottsdale, Arizona. As usual, per the hospital’s protocol, he was given Remdesivir right off the bat. After the five-day treatment of Remdesivir, Donald’s health started failing. Meantime, his daughter was begging for him to get Ivermectin for five straight days and the doctor agreed to give him some, but only one dose.

Donald was not given proper nutrition and lost quite a bit of weight during his stay in the hospital. They were alternating between the BiPap and CPAP masks and he was stable until the effects of the Remdesivir took effect and he went into Atrial fibrillation.

Like the others, Donald was isolated from his family and had no patient advocate. It took Colleen two weeks to talk to a doctor about her father, even though she would call two or three times a day. Her dad was not sleeping well and was malnourished, not a great combination for fighting off an illness. The hospital did finally let a priest in the room to do an anointing of the sick.

The doctors continually pushed the ventilator, but the family refused to consent. Donald passed away on January 30, 2021. The hospital listed Covid-19 on his death certificate; however, Donald clearly was another Remdesivir victim.

RIP Donald.
