Los Angeles resident Francisco Garcia tested positive for COVID-19 in April and says he doesn't know how he caught it. Now recuperating, the 31-year-old had avoided leaving the house because he was afraid of bringing the virus home and infecting his family. The symptoms seemed mild at first: fever
LOS ANGELES - Los Angeles resident Francisco Garcia tested positive for COVID-19 in April and says he doesn't know how he caught it.
Garcia doesn't recall being in pain. All he can remember is being at a hospital near his home. Then he woke up in a different hospital with a tube inserted into his nose."In the second hospital, they just told my dad that the only reason that he was still alive was because of the medication they're giving him," said Garcia's sister Lorena, explaining how the family had to make difficult choices with his medical care.
"Just knowing that my mom and my sister are sick ... and I can't do nothing about it. That kind of hurt me," he said, fighting back tears.
