Tough week! After one of my reps went dark on me, I had HR request a wellness check. The family had asked for one over the weekend too and police found her dead. Single 38 yr old fitness junkie. This woman was a picture of health and never missed a day working out and ate like a championship athlete!
My take away and advice:
She was diagnosed with pneumonia by an urgent care clinic and given antibiotics. She kept telling me and her peers that she wasn't getting much better. She said the clinic refused to test her for Covid, wtf??? They told her that her symptoms didn't fit.
Confirmed she died from complications from Covid
I'm in the Med device field so I know she knew better but she kept thinking she didn't have it because they refused to test her.
My advice...if you feel sick, force the doctor to test you! Hell, tell them you've been in contact with someone who tested positive if you have to.
Had this woman who was young and a picture of health been tested early, she most likely would've been treated correctly and alive today!
Be a champion for you and your family and demand testing if you have to. Don't take no for an answer.
