Dr. Kavita Patel: Children, Babies, Adolescents Are Literally Dying From This Virus
EXCERPT:
PATEL: “This is the president who basically from day one has stripped many of the parts of the Affordable Care Act, has stripped away states' abilities to expand Medicaid access. And candidly, has promoted what we call in health care, junk health plans that don’t even cover things like cancer care or mental health benefits. So this is truly not just self-centeredness and navel-gazing, but the idea that Rudy Giuliani can characterize this illness as something that’s 'treatable,' 3,000 deaths prove otherwise. And by the way, it’s not just certain people that are getting sick. Children, babies, adolescents, teenagers, young men, young women, all ages, all people are getting — literally dying from this virus. So it goes so far beyond that President-Elect Biden certainly has a high hill to climb, but I’m much more confident that he can do this and I do believe that we will see an incredible change on January 20th, but start to see one now with the transition."
