A letter to my brother. Who had a run in with a non-compliant, anti-masker;

Dear Joe,

When they intubate a COVID patient it’s like a scene from the movie alien. A face hugger like myriad of tubes and breathing apparatus’ covers their faces. They’re hooked up to a shit load...

of modules and pumps. The only recourse doctors here have are to infuse the infected with massive amounts of antibiotics and hope and pray their immune systems are able to do the rest. Sometimes it works and the patient lives. But most of the time, death prevails....

They all die alone. What I find most utterly horrific is the sounds they make. A person dying from COVID emits a gurgling noise, you can hear their lungs struggling to flex beneath the enormous weight of the virus. As if they are drowning in their own blood and saliva..

It’s an incredibly terrifying experience I will carry with me the rest of my life. It’s traumatic. Depressing. Sad.

Please wear your mask at all times. And stay the fuck away from those too stupid to simply comply with CDC safety protocols. I don’t care what happens to them...

Anti-maskers made their decision. They are not my concern. You, on the other hand, are my brother.

Love, bro John
