Dr. Susan Moore was a Black physician who said she was mistreated at an Indiana hospital and died after being diagnosed with COVID-19. Others on social media are questioning whether she would have been treated differently if she had been white. Moore died Sunday, December 20, due to coronavirus complications at age 52, her family and friends said on social media.
Moore posted a video on Facebook December 4, 2020, saying a doctor was attempting to discharge her too soon and she was initially denied narcotic pain medication. She said this was because of the color of her skin. Heavy contacted the hospital Moore named in her video on the evening of Tuesday, December 22, 2020. A media relations contact said he could not comment on a specific patient’s care due to patient confidentiality laws, but said he would look over the social media posts and may provide a statement.
