....wow
That timeline reads to me like he was in withdrawal, vomited, and likely aspirated on his own vomit. All due to lack of actual human care in a supposed ICU. I say "supposed", because that shit shouldn't even be legal for tele-health in the first place.
Marketing be like "this service pairs expert remote monitoring with skilled bedside care" and I translate that bullshit as "we farm monitoring jobs to cheaper labor markets and they watch people die, on Zoom".
I'm willing to bet his family can likely win a lawsuit from this. From both the doctor and the hospital, hopefully that will be costly enough to reverse this bullshit.
Unlikely, without regulation against this. Fines are just a cost of business, since they are never, ever costly enough. Either a true penalty fine, or executives in prison, or both, are the only response to ensure change, here.
