Showing Original Post only (View all)Gotta tell you about a text from my niece in TX. [View all]
My no vax sister got the covid. Her son drove her to ER. in Lumberton TX. (difficulty breathing) Got there and they administered the Plasma treatment then sent her home. This AM got another text from niece saying that my sister had a ROUGH night and her son was taking her to a dif. hospital. (Port Neches?) The real reason for this message is this. My sister was told that evidently she has to wait 100 to 200 hours for a bed there. (i do not know if patients are just in a chair or a bed waiting in the halls of the hospital?) CRAZY TEXAS!!! I hope she gets better. My sister is very much against the vaccination so i guess i have mixed feelings here.

So sorry for her. She must have been deep into COVID for the plasma treatment not to work.
