someone died from a heart attack because so much nonsense is going on with hospital staff spending 1/2 their day concentrating on covid and doing meaningless rat tests and wiping down benches and asking every visitor to fill in forms .
No, not at all.
She died because the ambulance took 2 and a half hours to get to her.
It was a Saturday night/early Sunday morning.
There were no ambulances available because they were all busy on the usual Saturday night calls - drug overdoses, fights, vehicle accidents, domestic violence, alcohol related injuries, etc.
The hospitals and ambulances were busy dealing with these normal late night/early morning weekend incidents.
It had nothing to do with them treating COVID patients.
A similar thing happened to my father back in 2019, before COVID hit - he was left laying on the bathroom floor for almost 3 hours waiting for an ambulance to attend (on a Saturday evening).
On a side note, my mother had another heart attack on the same day as the 80 year old woman we're discussing, but 12 hours later - at 2.30 Sunday afternoon.
Thankfully, her ambulance arrived within 8 or 9 minutes and she's fine now.
My sincere condolences go out to the family of the poor woman who died though. Terribly tragic.
