David Aldridge breaking down on the phone on NBA TV damn
There are healthcare professionals that would disagree that there is bias in how African-Americans are treated when it comes to the quality of their medical care.
Also there was an article recently about COVID treatments being left on the table that could reduce the severity of the disease and reduce the duration of hospital stays. The less time you spend in the hospital the better, particularly in facilities where care was questionable at best Pre-COVID. A hospitalized COVID patient had time to beat his fellow COVID patient to death with an oxygen tank. Once you get to the point of hospitalization you can barely walk so imagine the amount of time needed to beat someone to death with an oxygen tank while battling severe COVID. These patients are being left to their own devices.
There are stories of doctors and nurses that put in months of work and helped someone beat COVID. Many actually. But then you had nurses putting patients on vents as early as possible to protect themselves, damage done to the patient be damned. Fact is there needs to be more scrutiny and pressure for improved treatment, particularly since so many of us are having bad outcomes. Why would you want any less at this point?
Also read the story about the black physician who chronicled her poor care by peers before she succumbed to COVID herself. It's not all good in these facilities.
I've been avoiding all things NBA today, for obvious reasons, decide its late enough in the day to check in, and I stumble on this news. Godspeed Sekou Smith.
RIP Sekou. Always caught him on NBA TV. Sad indeed

I could tell he had an underlying sickness when he had that rapid weight loss a couple years ago, and would take off for months while working for NBA TV

No..Money..Mo..Problems
it is what it is
Covid causes alot of inflammation in some patients. He most likely died from a heart attack. Covid thickens the blood if your body doesn't fight it right away and you don't seek help soon enough blood clots start forming. That's what killed that Louisiana politician. Every covid patient in the hospital is given blood thinners.
This is crazy
All it takes is someone who didnt follow the covid rules to give u this disease
Rip
They need to hurry up with the vaccines

What's following the rules? You can do everything they say and still get sick. It's a virus.

Schedule a checkup with your doctor and ask them to do blood tests and take labs of your lungs. You never know if you have a blood clot that they might find. The sooner you catch it the easier it is to treat with blood thinners.
I had a friend in his late 20s die a few months ago and his family said he died from a heart attack. Looking back now I wonder if it might of been covid related because he seemed perfectly healthy.
I agree man..im perfectly healthy and been in my house
Masked up for a grocery
Seems like this virus is in the air
