My friend’s 73 yr old mother went to the ER at Interfaith in Brooklyn at 6pm last night. She’s now been sitting in a chair in the ER for 29 hours waiting for a bed. She has a bad cough, a fever and violent chills. She calls her daughter crying pain and fear. https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1246536733157720068">https://twitter.com/atrupar/s...

Her daughter is freaking out & desperate for help. She’s afraid her mom is going to give up.
Her COVID test just came back positive. But she’s still in a chair. There are still no beds.
The drs and nurses are doing their best. They’re in an impossible situation @interfaithmed

There just aren’t beds.
Don’t mistake sending a ship or building a field hospital as remedying the situation. It’s a full on a crisis and people are dying. The hospital system was not built to handle this. The state needs help.
