[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a friend who died (not from Covid) due to the US lockdowns.

Her cancer doctor was prohibited from ordering her routine scan so she did not get her routine scan until 9 months later than normal.  The results at that time were not good and she died from cancer.

Many people died (unrelated to Covid) from the US lockdowns as they could not go to their routine scans and healthcare appointments.[/quote]

I was able to get preventative care during Covid. This doesn’t make sense.[/quote]

NP.  Not everyone was as lucky as you.  My mom was bedridden for 6 months because her hip replacement kept getting delayed.  She didn't die, but she was in tremendous pain for months.  Docs kept rescheduling and prescribing0 narcotic pain meds.  There was no ball of her hip left when she finally got in. [/quote]

Yeah, this scenario happened for many.

My brother was scheduled for shoulder surgery in either late March or early April 2020. It was canceled because it was seen as "elective" by the hospital even though it affected his everyday life and work life.

He was finally able to get the surgery in April 2021 and it ended up being more evasive and a bigger procedure than it would have been in 2020. Instead of just needing to repair one thing, they had to repair 3 different things and his healing process was much longer. Also, of course, because they had to repair more, his bill was more. His insurance covered all but $2k of it but it wouldn't have been that much a year prior.  [/quote]
