If, that is, a lawsuit filed by the alleged victim and (bum-)steered by, of course, yet another failed Republican candidate who just happens to practice law, is affirmed. Here’s the story from WDEL (an El Som tip of the sombrero to an intrepid tipster):
A lawsuit filed in Delaware Chancery Court seeks to force a local hospital to use a controversial treatment for COVID-19.
David DeMarco, 54, of Brandywine Hundred was hospitalized with COVID-19 on September 7, 2021, according to a complaint filed on September 17, 2021. Since being hospitalized, he’s not responded to various treatments including anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, and steroid drugs administered at Wilmington Hospital, the complaint claims.
An attorney for the DeMarcos, Ted Kittila, told WDEL Monday that DeMarco was moved to home hospice care Sunday, but has since been transferred back to the ICU, where he’s been intubated with mechanical ventilation. He did not answer whether DeMarco was vaccinated against COVID-19.
Without the horse dewormer, the lawsuit alleges, this guy is headed for the Last Roundup. They found some doctor in Milton to write a scrip for the dewormer which, of course, has not been shown to have any medical value whatsoever in the treatment of COVID, but which has become yet the latest ‘miracle cure’ touted by the RWNJ’s. A cynic might suggest, “If you’re gonna take horse dewormer, why didn’t you just get the shot?” But I’m no cynic.
Oh, and Ted Kittila? He got 39.2% of the vote against Matt Denn as the Rethug candidate for AG in 2014. 39.2% then is just about 38% now when it comes to the R ceiling statewide in Delaware.
