Then on Friday night, a nurse with UW called her back and after hearing her symptoms, told her to call 911, saying she was “on the brink of pneumonia.” Instead her husband drove her to the emergency room at Swedish in Issaquah Friday night.
Teixeira says that even at one point even the doctor she had been working with seemed distraught by all of it.
“He said in the beginning they were told not to test then they were told to test anyone who came in and then he said two days ago they were told that they were not to test anyone again. He said if I had come in Monday I would’ve gotten a test.”
When asked by KOMO News if she was told what warranted a test or what the testing protocol entailed, Teixeira says a doctor told her, “You have to be hospitalized, like on a ventilator.”
