There were two medical facts that were in the original article that are missing from this one.

Dr. Moore had sarcoidosis, which made her much more susceptible to the disease and at risk of dying. She was discharged from the hospital and admitted to a second (and final) hospital twelve hours later. She was a high-risk patient who knew what appropriate care was and yet she was inappropriately discharged from the hospital.

Racially biased denial of medical treatment is a long-time, well-documented problem in America and an M.D. can't even get proper care. How will others? #DrSusanMoore

@TonyStark This is so sad. I've witnessed so many other white male doctors not taking Black and brown patients seriously, even women patients in general.

We need as medical professionals to stand against this and put an end to it.
