    I guess he didn't qualify as famous enough for the special monoclonal antibody treatment that celebrities like Rudy, Ben Carson, Chris Christie & POTUS had access to.

    Crede Bailey, the director of the White House security office, was the most severely ill among dozens of Covid-19 cases known to be connected to the White House. Bailey’s family has asked the White House not to publicize his condition, and President Donald Trump has never publicly acknowledged his illness.

    Bailey’s friends have raised more than $30,000 for his rehabilitation through a GoFundMe account. The White House declined to say whether Trump has contributed to the effort.

    “Crede beat COVID-19 but it came at a significant cost: his big toe on his left foot as well as his right foot and lower leg had to be amputated,” Dawn McCrobie, who organized the GoFundMe effort for Bailey, wrote Dec. 7.

    Bailey is now at a rehabilitation center and will be fitted for a prosthetic leg in the coming months, she wrote.

    “His family has staggering medical bills from a hospital stay of 2+ months and still counting in the ICU and a long road ahead in rehab before he can go home,” McCrobie wrote Nov. 13, when she created the account. “When he does make it home there will be major changes necessary to deal with his new, and permanent, disability.”

    I'm more interested on how the covid got his limbs. He had to suffer from blood clots previous to getting covid, right? Amazed how many other things Covid can attack without being a death.

    With all the money they grift, they should pay this man's bills.

    A White House employee with a staggering medical bill is not a good look.

    So this is why the GOP wants an employer liability shield.

    Your parents and grandparents must die so that Rudy and Ben and DJT can live.

    COVID-19 Patients With Arterial Leg Thromboses Risk Amputation and Death
    A small study of patients treated early in the pandemic shows poor outcomes when leg symptoms are involved.
    https://www.tctmd.com/news/covid-19-patients-arterial-leg-thromboses-risk-amputation-and-death

    Arterial thrombosis is a blood clot that develops in an artery. It's dangerous as it can obstruct or stop the flow of blood to major organs, such as the heart or brain. If a blood clot narrows one or more of the arteries leading to the heart, muscle pain known as angina can occur.

    This is what happens when you have to live the consequences of the people and policies you support.
