Wow. Dr. Chen's testimony is unbelievable. The medical officer of health said Nathaniel Spitzer, a 14 year old boy was the first child who passed away from Covid in Alberta, but he actually died of terminal brain cancer. Dr. Chen was his family doctor, the tumour had progressed
to the point it was visible, he lost his sight and the use of half of his body. He was admitted to the hospital for palliative care August 25th and passed on October 7th. Each week he got weaker and required more assistance and pain control. In the last few days prior to his
death he ended up having a fever and diarrhea, they tested for covid and he was positive. Dr. Chen knew the cause of death was due complications of the brain cancer. He explained the events leading up to his death to the medical examiners, to which they agreed not to write covid
on the death certificate. However, the chief medical officer, Dr. Hinshaw held a press conference announcing (without using Nathanials name) that they have had the first child death due to Covid in Alberta. His death was announced as the first covid death of a child, but Dr. Chen
did not mention Covid in the report. The death certificate did not mention covid, the discharge summary didnt mention covid, Dr. Chen was not interviewed including by Dr. Hinshaw and the family was not interviewed. The family of Nathaniel took to social media saying he did not
die from Covid, they put pressure on Dr. Hinshaw to which she appoligized for the hurt she caused for announcing his death this way which occurred a few days after the family's pressure.
