URGENT Cardinal Burke critical in hospital with Covid

Post by MarieT »

Urgent prayers are requested for His Eminence Cardinal Burke.
Update:
The Cardinal's condition is grave and the next 48 hours will be crucial if he lives or dies.
He remains on a ventilator and has severe pneumonia that is not responding to treatment.
They are trying a new drug today but are not optimistic about his chances of survival.

Thank you for the prayers
Oh my goodness....he was admitted after testing positive a few days ago and was ok.....he even prayed the rosary for all who were affected by Covid.
This is quite extraordinary. I know he has refused the Vaccination on the grounds of aborted foetus use to manufacture it.....but how could he go downhill so suddenly after being ok for a few days. Covid - affected people i know...some in their 80's recovered after a couple of days, not went downhill.

Also how could the pneumonia have developed while under hospital care?

We invoke Almighty God's protection over the Cardinal.

I prayed the Flying Novena for him yesterday. They should give him ivermectin. I always heard that people on these machines usually get pneumonia.

Hospital-acquired pneumonia - MedlinePlushttps://medlineplus.gov › Medical Encyclopedia
Jul 23, 2019 — Pneumonia occurs more often in people who are using a respirator, which is a machine that helps them breathe.

Cardinal Burke in critical condition, breathing with ventilator (AP)

Editor's Note: Cardinal Raymond Burke’s condition is critical, his family has disclosed, urgently asking for prayers for the ailing prelate. He is on a ventilator, and reportedly suffering from pneumonia which has resisted treatment. The cardinal contracted Covid while visiting his native Wisconsin.

The cardinal’s illness has precipitated a number of negative reports in the mainstream media, scolding the prelate for his opposition to the Covid lockdown and strongly suggesting—in some cases clearly saying—that his illness is his own fault.

i read some of the headlines of those reports and was sickened that they would take that stance while a man is dying.
