Man dies in Des Moines hospital after staff can't find ICU room in Nebraska ('We called 23 different hospitals')

DES MOINES, Iowa (KETV) — Mark McConnaughey was a guy you could count on for anything, according to his long-time friend and doctor Mike Zaruba.

"If someone was in need, he would drop whatever he was doing, even if he needed to get what he was doing done, and come help," Zaruba said.

KETV reports two weeks ago, when the 57-year-old needed care beyond what the Nemaha County Hospital could provide, Zaruba, a board-certified ER doctor, said they could not find any help available in Nebraska.

"That triggered an inflammatory response through his body that cause multi-organ failure," Zaruba said.

McConnaughey was never tested for COVID-19 but showed many of the signs for COVID according to Zaruba. He said McConnaughey was fully vaccinated.

So ... fully vaccinated man dies of something that looks suspiciously like Covid ...

Not to mention this matches the numerous vaccine deaths.

Having been to the local emergency room for an issue not related to covid I can say that the entire medical establishment needs to change their protocols. They need a process whereby non COVID patients can get the immediate care they need while the COVID patients get what they need and never the two should mix. I saw potential COVID patients on gurneys hacking and coughing in the er mixed in among others. I waited in my car. I was sent to the er for a stat CT scan that evidently had to go through the er. What a dumb way to do things. Get the covid folks away from the others somehow! Don’t care if vaccinated or not, the er is a breeding ground for more cases.

Illegals?

Lack of nurses because of vaccine mandates so they had to cut available beds?

Filling them up with non-critical cases?

Seems now that medical negligence by the medical community is being written off as COVID.

Medical *mistakes* are the third leading cause of death in the US.

When I was in the hosiptal with a MRSA infection, they were doing all kinds of stuff but actually checking the infection site. Why?

Because I wasn’t running a fever, the area was only warm and pink and not hot.

It took them EIGHT DAYS to decide to draw off some fluid to see what was going on and the doctor literally gasped when she drew off a syringe full of pus.

She was SURE it wasn’t infected.

What a surprise.

I could have told them by the pain I was in that there was something wrong, and I kept complaining about it.

And this was supposed to be one of the best hospitals in Syracuse.

God spared me, no thanks to the medical community and their incompetence and conflicting medical advice, and nasty snarky doctors who didn’t believe what I was telling them.

I went to ER a few months ago gor breathing problems, they never tested me. I am oddly persuasive so they thought ut was a heart issue, they kept me overnight & found an enlarged aorta, & gave me new inhaler for COPD. I did not want tested for covid as I was afraid I would die from treatment...

Nothing but lies!!! There was an article posted here awhile ago from a Doctor who stated that: "ICU's are set up for emergency situations, however any room in the hospital can handle an ICU patient."

They think we all all stupid and we need to change this. Fight back!

“So ... fully vaccinated man dies of something that looks suspiciously like Covid ...”

And no one thinks to test him. I call BS

The next step is going to be not treating the unvaccinated, at least for Covid. But then should smokers or the obese, or people who drive drunk get treated, or if they do should they be covered; lots of people see all of the forgoing as essentially self-inflicted.

We will see.

Nemaha County Hospital is in Auburn NE, down in the corner near Kansas and Missouri. Maybe an hour from Lincoln, not much more to Omaha and maybe two hours from Kansas City.

And he dies in a Des Moines IA hospital?

And there are no beds at the U of Nebraska Medical Center teaching hospital?

Something is missing in the reporting of the story.

So what they’re saying is, the hospitals are full of vaccinated people, they couldn’t find room for another vaccinated person, so please go get vaccinated. It’s not just about you.

I think that when they need to tell REALLY big lies, they give the assignment to the worst writers. It provides a little "cover" if readers notice the BS.

He received the jabs 13 days ago, but since that does not count as being vaccinated now days he was denied care.

“That triggered an inflammatory response through his body that cause multi-organ failure,”

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++=

So does Remdesivir (cause multi-organ failure).

Sorry for the weird channel - short version of a longer video & the sound is much better on this one. Dr. Ardis was speaking at General Flynn’s ReAwaken America Tour.

Why wasn’t the patient treated with HCQ or Ivermectin?????

I think this is the real point. My local healthcare systems are crying and crying about being overloaded but is anyone using treatments that work? No, instead we must disparage those who advocate for ivermectin and HCQ protocols. I pray to God that myself and my family will not need a hospital anytime soon.
