Biden indicates he pressured emergency room to fast-track a 'good friend'
Fox News
President Joe Biden said he personally reached out to a hospital last night to ensure the wife of his “good friend” received immediate care because the "waiting room was so crowded.”
"To make long story short, it took a while because all of the – not all – the vast majority of the emergency rooms and docs were occupied taking care of COVID patients," Biden added. "I bet every one of you can name somebody who got sent to the hospital with something other than COVID and couldn't get it taken care of."
Biden said that he "wasn’t complaining" when he made the phone call because doctors and nurses working in overcrowded hospitals are "getting the living hell kicked out of them, sometimes physically."
