Florida teen dies after conspiracy theorist mom takes her to church ‘COVID party’ and tries to treat her with Trump-approved drug: report

[...]

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement investigated the teen’s last two week in the medical examiner’s report, which Jones said shows her mother, Carole Brunton Davis, had taken her June 10 to a church-sponsored event to intentionally expose her immunocompromised daughter, who had survived cancer at 2, to the potentially deadly coronavirus.

More than 100 mask-free children attended the event, and Davis gave her daughter azithromycin, an anti-bacterial drug with no known benefits for fighting COVID-19, after she developed headaches, sinus pressure and a cough, Jones reported.

[...]

Davis — whose Facebook page is awash in QAnon conspiracy theories, anti-vaccine and coronavirus misinformation and dubious legal theories — next put the girl on her grandfather’s oxygen machine after she “looked gray” on June 19.



Then she gave the girl hydroxychloroquine, an antimalarial drug touted as a cure by President Donald Trump, despite evidence of deadly side effects, and Carsyn’s condition worsened.

This might amount to something. BD is a long time player in diagnostics.

Every doctor's office will then want the device to read it.

Or those places that do blood tests might do it.

It's no good. The virus isn't in the blood immediately. That's why you want to test throat swabs, not the blood.

191 new cases today in pestilence central. The curve has gone full exponential. Not looking good there.

We're expecting the remainder of Melbourne to be put under lockdown any day now. If so, it won't make much difference to us - we'll be allowed out to get food or medication (gin counts as medication, of course), and we're already unable to visit our sons or vice versa, as they're in lockdown suburbs anyway...

I have no symptoms since attending a funeral last week. I did worry a bit, we have so many testing positive around here...

Keep well, Sean!

As expected Metropolitan Melbourne, plus a shire to the north, has been put back into lockdown for 6 weeks. There are only 4 reasons for leaving your house - getting essential supplies, medical appointments, exercise or work. We coped before, we'll cope again...

A big part of it was incompetent and poorly supervised security guards at hotels housing international travellers under quarantine, plus large family parties in other places...

All y'all pussies worried about a few hundred cases. Fuck, we got 10s of thousands and we're still out there partying.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Went to the barber shop today and the young woman cutting my hair told me she had a male customer complain about having to wear a mask. He said he didn't like the government telling him what to do with his body.

Her response was, "at least you don't have a uterus." :hehe:
