Died of a coronavirus infection, Susan Moore, an African-American doctor who claims she did not receive proper treatment at an Indianapolis hospital because of her skin color, writes CBS News.
Dr. Susan Moore died today from COVID, but HOW she died is unacceptable. He posted a video on Facebook from an Indiana hospital days before his death about the abuse. “This is how they kill blacks when you send them home and they don’t know how to fight for themselves” https://t.co/iSF8rs7qmI pic.twitter.com/3a8qE6DhN3

Susan Moore reported in a video about the negative discrimination she suffered. He claimed that he had not received proper treatment, that white doctors and nurses had not given him a coronavirus drug called remdesivir, despite his request, that he would have to wait hours to receive pain relievers and perform a CT scan of his lungs. For this reason, she also spoke with a patient rights representative, who in turn told her that nothing could be done about her.
The 52-year-old doctor posted the video on December 4. He lost his life on December 20.
Although he had previously requested to be transferred to another hospital, his request was also denied and he was allegedly advised to go home if treatment was not suitable for him. He was finally sent home from the hospital, but barely half a day passed and they had to take him back. He was later transferred to another hospital. There he died.
This is how they kill blacks.
He stated in the video. He also revealed that he had previously been involved in the Black Lives Matter movements, and that this may have contributed to the way doctors allegedly treated him.
According to statistics, African Americans are 2.8 times more likely to die from coronavirus infection than whites.
