A member of a facebook group I am on went into the hospital July 19th he is still in and it is looking like he is not going to make it. His FB page has some covid mocking memes, I asked if he had been vaccinated never got an answer pretty much sums that up.

He has a wife and 15 year old son.

His wife has been journaling the hospital stay anyone anti vaxx needs to read it.

1. Idiot evangelicals is what I got from this.

The stupidity level is very high in this country.

2. I agree

they think the invisible sky god will fix it.

3. Sadly, that's not usually the case.

God helps those who help themselves and they did not.

4. "God's" method of fixing things usually involves a lot of death and destruction...

6. This ☝️☝️☝️

Reminds me of the two boats and a helicopter joke. All this praying for a miracle now, when his situation is so dire, when the miracle of a free and effective vaccine was available for the asking. If there is a God, she is not happy with us right now. NOT. AT. ALL.

5. I refuse to donate to any Go Fund Me...

For unvaccinated covid-19 sufferers...Just adding this point.

7. I would like to add to that

At this point anyone unvaccinated should be responsible for all medical bills, all our rates will go up because of these idiots. This guy has been in the hospital for over seven weeks. The cost to his family is lifelong.

Did a quick lookup of average cost

"The cost of hospital stays over 15 days jumped significantly, although there were not enough patients under 20 who were hospitalized for this long for FAIR Health to report on. Patients aged 21 to 40 paid the most for these longer hospitalizations, on average paying $980,821. The over 60 age group paid the least – about $460,989"
