‘It’s too late’: US doctor says dying patients beg for vaccine
While it’s too late for her young, previously healthy patients, their deaths from coronavirus are encouraging others to be vaccinated, writes Dr Brytney Cobia
Previously healthy young patients who are dying of coronavirus are begging to be vaccinated shortly before their death, a US hospital doctor claims.
Dr Brytney Cobia has taken to social media to explain how the tragic deaths are helping her make a “lot of progress” in encouraging others to be vaccinated.
“I’m admitting young healthy people to the hospital with very serious COVID-19 infections,” the Alabama-based doctor wrote in a Facebook post that has been shared 13,000 times.
“One of the last things they do before they’re intubated is beg me for the vaccine. I hold their hand and tell them that I’m sorry, but it’s too late.”
