Thread by @baldricman

Been chatting with a friend at Constantiaberg hospital (Capetown) for a while, and it's important to share this info.
They cannot do any more.

EU = emergency unit, "divert" means send them to another hospital (which will probably have the same problem, however)

Remember, this is a well resourced private hospital.

Just a small except from the triage framework:

Please share this with your friends, especially if they don't seem aware of the urgency of the situation.
It is ENTIRELY up to us now.

Last point, because I know how important accuracy is right now: the above can all be verified as authentic, via selective DM.

I'm checking out of this thread now, need to get back to Christmas plans!
Thanks to majority for honest/respectful engagement etc.
Again, if a journo/official needs sources please DM me, but this is hardly a unique situation.
*NB*: thanks to Mediclinic for the response (+efforts)

Fine, one last thing. I legit feel bad for losing my cool with covid deniers/downplayers. Dunno why I care more this time, but, needed to get it off my chest. (Doesn't mean I'll entertain their nonsense, just to be clear 😋)
Stay safe all!
