TRIGGER WARNING Dr. documents her mistreatment before dying of Covid-19

[Hortensis]

32. Not necessarily. Very possible, but she was a woman --

generator of much more bigotry than skin color, ask any black woman of achievement. I knew 3 women who died with primary cause of death negligence due to their gender, and they were all white. For decades the only devices and medications for a number of critical conditions were tested only on men, dosages and will-they-work-on-women? guessed at and too-large devices crammed into women's bodies however they could be.

AND she was asking for narcotics early on. Since the laws have tightened up dramatically, that's an automatic trigger of suspicion in those circumstances. We've had a number of white people on this very forum weeping with despair over undertreated pain.

Tragic, but we owe it to her and all the others to insist they investigate adn find out exactly why this happened, not to just facilely chalk it down to race and be done.
