ER doctor who survived COVID-19 reunites with family after 3-month-long battle

[@erika8214]

Congratulations, Dr. Lashley! Keep fighting and thank you for your medical service! I have M.S. and back in 2016 I had to relearn how to walk and was difficult.

6:14 look at the way she looks at her father with such love, you can tell she is so proud of him for fighting to get back to them. This really brought a tear to my eye. But at 6:55 I'm totally balling happy tears! So sweet!

[@Dolcevita_bakes]

Ohh blah blah blah! Did she cry when her dad was diagnosed with diabetes and obesity while continuing to feed him fried fat and no exercise???? No??? This whole family is unhealthy and obese! Had he been fit and healthy and exercised, he would be struggling so bad with this virus that has a 99% survival rate! He’s a walking disaster! Obviously this family didn’t care about his health before he fought the virus and now they’re all crying about it! Pulease! Get me a tiny violin!! 😭

Hes a big fat over weight unhealthy diabetic disaster that fought the dam sniffles! That’s why he’s struggling! He has serious underlying health issues from not exercising and eating fried crap his whole life that lead to his COPD! Look at his very unhealthy looking family! Had he been in shape and fought this, we wouldn’t even be hearing about this guy and his family! Look at his fat children and wife! They obviously don’t eat healthy or promote exercise! Stop blaming this virus and blame your eating habits! That woman whom gave you plasma didn’t suffer at all with sniffles-19 because was HEALTHY!!!!

@@dabblerdeluxe775 amen.

[@allisonavery7273]

@Karen Karen like what? Questions arent usually bad

[@kryptofreak74]

@Karen Karen For decades, surgeons have been wearing masks in the operating room to prevent them from infecting their patients with any cold/virus they might have. A surgeon might have to wear that mask for several hours, and I have never heard of a single surgeon dying from wearing one. It has been established medical fact that masks help prevent the spread of disease, and it was never political until now. Also, we don't have a lot of good data about demographics and infection rates because we dont have a coherent national response. The states have been left to handle virus individually, and each state has it's own method of diagnosing covid and collecting data. There is little to no consistency in the way states collect and report their data, which makes it very difficult to interpret the results. The CDC and the national government really hung us out to dry on this one. All we know for sure is that hand washing and mask wearing works to slow the spread of the virus because hand washing and wearing masks works to slow the spread of MOST viruses. I suspect we'll see fewer cases of the flu this year than normal, since so many people are being more careful about their hygiene.

[@kryptofreak74]

@Karen Karen I also agree that there are a lot of questions the media isnt answering, partly because they probably dont KNOW the answers, and partly because they like to repeat the same talking points OVER and OVER. I'd tell you to read the medical journals, but even they are reporting on studies that have a couple hundred people in them. A couple hundred. MILLIONS of people have been diagnosed with the virus, any legitimate study should have THOUSANDS of participants AT LEAST in order to be considered credible. This is where the problem of the national response comes into play. We can't just have one small study conducted at one hospital in one state. We need huge studies conducted across the country, with communication and coordination between dozens of states and hospitals. The kind of thing the national government should be in charge of, but they aren't doing because the numbers "look bad." 🙄

The american society need learn from watching foreingn news and read about other countries who have profited from adhering to the precaution measures imposed to them early by their government leaders, who were not selfisch to think about saving the economy but rather putting human lives first! before the money. ! Unlike their president who is brainwashing them instead of taking full responsibility for having been the cause of hundred thousand deaths and milions of people infected!. If only he had followed the same policies as the Europeaan countries who have reached the threshold and are now somewhat stabilzed so that they can work on their Economy now. American families be alert dont get stuck onto America first... rather than on our healthy lives first,! because without it their Will be no America.! Wake the hell up.and be safe.
