A nurse working in New York described the pandemic situation in the city as a horror movie and claimed patients are being ‘murdered’ by putting them on ventilators and causing trauma to their lungs.
She said through a friend: “It’s a horror movie. Not because of the disease, but the way it is being handled.”
The nurse also said family members of the patients have to make it clear that they do not want their loved ones hooked up to ventilators as soon as they are taken to the hospital.
She just convinced her friend, a nurse practitioner but not working on COVID-19 patients, to make a video to tell others what’s happening in hospitals.
“I am her voice. I’m going to tell you what she has told me,” the nurse practitioner named Sara, said. “She wants this to get out.”
“She has never seen so much neglect. No one cares. They are cold and they don’t care anymore. It’s the blind leading the blind,” Sara said in a video shared on YouTube.
“People are sick, but they don’t have to stay sick. They are killing them, they are not helping them.”
Sara also used the word murder, the exact word used by her friend working in a New York hospital. “Patients are left to rot and die — her words. People are being murdered and no one cares.”
She didn’t mention which hospital her friend is working in ‘for the safety of those involved.’
“The patients don’t know any better. They don’t have family with them. There is no one there with them to advocate for them. So they are scared, and they give consent,” Sara continued.
“The ventilators have high pressure, which then causes barotrauma, it causes trauma to the lungs’, adding that the best way to survive is to ‘buck the system.’
“Your loved one is not going to have you in there advocating for them once they go in, you’re not allowed in.
“Do not give consent for intubation if you don’t want to be intubated or for your loved one to be intubated… As soon as you give that consent, you might not come out of it.”
As of April 29, there are 1,035,765 COVID-19 cases in USA, with 59,266 fatalities. New York has 301,450 confirmed cases and 23,144 deaths.
In another YouTube video, ER doctor Cameron Kyle-Sidell said: “I’ve talked to doctors all around the country and it is becoming increasingly clear that the pressure we’re providing may be hurting their lungs.
“It is highly likely that the high pressures we’re us.” He added: “It’s not our fault. We didn’t know.”
Kyle-Siddell, who said ventilators must be programmed differently as they do not need pressure, stepped down from working in the intensive care unit as he did not want to follow the ventilator protocol of the hospital.
“I could not morally, in a patient-doctor relationship, continue the current protocols which, again, are the protocols of the top hospitals in the country,” he expressed.
