REGISTERED NURSE THREATENS TO DENY TRUMP SUPPORTER CORONAVIRUS TREATMENT
REGISTERED NURSE THREATENS TO DENY TRUMP SUPPORTER CORONAVIRUS TREATMENT

A self-proclaimed registered nurse took to Twitter to suggest that she would not give someone emergency medical treatment for coronavirus if he was a Trump supporter.
The nurse was responding to a man called George S. Martan who posted a photo of himself wearing a face mask with ‘Trump 2020’ embroidered onto it.
“My wife sewed this face mask today to protect me from the Wuhan Virus and show support for President Trump,” commented the man.
I’ll see you in ER. Please wear your mask so when we have to decide who gets the vent, it’ll be easier. Thanks
“I’ll see you in ER. Please wear your mask so when we have to decide who gets the vent, it’ll be easier. Thanks,” responded Erika Waters, who describes herself as a registered nurse practitioner in her bio.
Waters has several anti-Trump hashtags in her bio, including #Resist, #GunReform and #BLM (Black Lives Matter).
She immediately faced the wrath of other Twitter users, including one who pointed out, “Medical homicide via negligence is the third leading cause of death in the United States.”
More people are likely to die under your care than anything else. Medical homicide via negligence is the third leading cause of death in the United States. You’ve now shown the world why that is.
Others tagged the Florida medical board in an attempt to alert health authorities to the threat, with one tweeting, “Hope your medical malpractice carrier doesn’t see this.”
Waters later claimed that people were targeting the wrong nurse with the same name, remarking, “Your conduct is just as horrid as mine while you are doxxing every nurse named Erika Waters.”
She also subsequently apologized to Martan, tweeting, “I was not thinking, obviously, when I suggested you wear your mask into the ER where I work. I can’t explain why I tweeted that and hope you’ll forgive me but understand if you don’t.”
Since all this is public and ppl are doxxing the wrong person, I’ll tell you now that there are many nurses named Erika Waters. Your conduct is just as horrid as mine while you are doxxing every nurse named Erika Waters.
Waters also describes herself as “ex-GOP,” a “fact checker,” and a “Q blocker,” referencing those who hold to a far-right conspiracy theory around Donald Trump’s presidency.
If, in fact, Waters holds a nursing license in the state of Florida, it should be revoked immediately. Not only are making such threats unethical for any medical practitioner, but it is also illegal. Further, to make such threats public only serves to expose Waters’ overarching agenda which is to place her own personal politics over the lives of other people.
