24 hours of HELL in top NYC hospital: Patients left lying in hallways, urine soaked floors and staff incapable of providing answers for desperate family members - as city's healthcare system is stretched to breaking point
2023-03-20
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • A woman rushed her mother to the Mount Sinai Hospital on Madison Avenue on March 8 because she suspected the 67-year-old was having a stroke

  • This was ruled out within 10 minutes - but then a nightmarish day for the cancer sufferer and her daughter began as they were left waiting in limbo at the ER

  • 'Every corner was filled with people,' she said, describing trash littering the floor, urine pots kicked over and homeless people seeking treatment left ignored

#8  If you could ask for the citizenship of ER patients in California, you would get the shocking answer you suspect but cannot find. Our healthcare system, like the social safety net, is completely overrun by illegal aliens. Ask yourself why the Puppet Show has done this to our nation and only one answer makes strategic sense. It benefits the CCP through the implementation of the Cloward-Piven.

What's important is five year olds are muzzled and jabbed before going out to their birthday party.

#1  The Tragedy of the Commons made possible by federal mandates that no one gets turned away (but didn't provide resources to go with it).
