In the first days after he was diagnosed with COVID-19, League City Mayor Pat Hallisey was shuttled between hospitals, placed on oxygen and, at one point, doctors even came close to placing him on a ventilator, he said.
Hallisey, 71, didnât see anyone other than his doctors and nurses for 28 days.
He didnât realize it at the time, but doctors have told him he was very close to joining the list of 180 coronavirus-related deaths among county residents, he said.
Out of the hospital and recovering at home, Hallisey has had time to reflect on his bout with the virus. He should have taken it more seriously from the beginning, he said.
