Since that was in Florida, perhaps a stand-my-ground response would have been appropriate.

You better hope you don't get sick Barb.
They are trying to kill my brother and sister in law in North Carolina.

Won't accept you   at the hospital until you are either dying or you see a respiratory  specialist first,and then they REFUSE to test you for the virus.

My sister in law has got WORSE over 10  days and they WILL NOT test her.
Even though see has ALL of the symptoms.

Now trying to say she has a sinus infection,so they give her meds for that and she has a  IMMEDIATE  allergic reaction, and had hurry up to pop Benadryl to keep from potentially dying.

Well if your tongue starts swelling up call a fucking ambulance.

They are going to keep that shit up until someone dies and gets the clinic shot up.

Sorry to hear this Greg, hope she will be OK.  Where in NC does she live?  We all have wonderful health care here in New Bern, she wouldn't have been treated like that here.  Our city has 22 cases so far with 1 death.

Near Asheboro.
Now the doctor that saw her at the clinic over a week before ,who was ON CALL the last time she went looked at her info and  called her up said YEAH YOU PROBABLY GOT IT.

SAME thing the clinic told my brother when he went,but would not test him,saying he's PROBABLY getting over it because his temp was lower then the near 103 it was when he spend the night in the hospital a few days before.
Where they ALSO refused to test him.

And they BOTH have insurance,so it's not like they are worried  about getting  paid if they do the tests.

Oh and when she first started feeling stick and called her job saying she wouldn't be in that day told her she CAN'T come back to work until she gets a virus test ,or after 14 days.

Apparently the only way you are getting tested around there is when you are ready to be put on a vent.
Assuming they have any of those available to keep you from dying.

That is terrible Greg.  No excuse for that poor care.  It would not happen here in New Bern.  I hope she and her husband will both be OK, despite their bad care so far.  Let us know OK? I now have a relative in Brooklyn in a nursing home who has it.

When I talked to my brother yesterday I was so pissed I had to hang up on him before I worked myself into a heart attack or stroke.
