Arizona Senator Janae Shamp held a hearing on Hospital Protocols at an ironically-titled Novel Coronavirus Southwestern Intergovernmental Committee on Friday, March 15, 2024.
"Thank you, Charles. I've often found myself asking a haunting question: why weren't we confronted with the stark reality of the pandemic—bodies lining the streets or being carried out of homes? Instead, the grim truth unfolded within the sterile confines of hospitals, where people entered seeking care but left in body bags.
My daughter and I walked into Northwell Health Glen Cove Hospital in New York, both healthy and full of hope. Yet, forty days later, my daughter emerged in a body bag, her once vibrant life extinguished by heart failure and multiple organ failure.
It's a chilling realization to comprehend that my daughter's life, her very existence, was reduced to a mere commodity, traded on the stocks of Wall Street. How did we reach a point where human lives are treated as profit margins in the corridors of our hospitals?
If this is the deplorable outcome of seeking treatment for a simple dry cough, then it's evident that these so-called hospitals have failed in their fundamental duty to heal and protect. They have become nothing more than chambers of commerce, prioritizing financial gain over human life.
The loss of my daughter has left an irrevocable void in my heart, but it has also ignited a fire within me to demand justice and accountability. No one should endure such a tragic fate within the walls of institutions meant to provide solace and healing.
It's time to confront the harsh reality of our healthcare system and demand sweeping reforms. If we fail to take action now, we risk condemning more innocent lives to the same fate. My daughter's memory deserves better than this, and I will not rest until her legacy sparks the change we so desperately need."

I call it the Great Passover.
