She posted on FB asking for good vibes and prayers that her daughter gets through this. She was to have her 1st shot on Thursday.

Said during any given shift, 80 to 90 people come to the ER. Majority Covid. Wait time just to see a doctor for a Covid positive patient without breathing problems 12-18 hours. They are trying to get the message out that if you are not struggling to breathe, go to an Urgent Care.
