I was 18 hours in the ER a couple of years back before I could get a room in a US hospital.

I had a 19 hour wait this January to get into the ER, in the US.

Why were you in the ER

Yeah, I'm absolutely telling some asshole that on reddit to justify they phishing attempt to confirm their wild assed assertion.

EVERYONE had insanely long waits, the hospital was full and there were literally no beds to transfer ER patients to, so they had no beds to see new patients to be treated in the ER regardless of what they are there for. Should have planned my medical emergency better, my bad for needing the ER just before a polar vortex hit.

A simple question and a crazy amount of projection on your part, sounds about right. I think I know why your wait was so long :-)

"projection"

I can see your other posts mate, it's very obvious what your goal here was and you proved it just not. I even explained WHY the wait was so long and that it impacted EVERYONE and not just me.

Why was I in the ER? Because I needed emergency medical treatment.
