Dr. Lorna M. Breen, the medical director of the emergency department at NewYork-Presbyterian Allen Hospital, died in Charlottesville, Virginia on Sunday. In the days leading up to her death, the 48-year-old reportedly recounted to family members a series of the traumatic scenes she’d witnessed working in the Manhattan hospital, including an onslaught of patients dying infront of her before they could even be taken out of ambulances. Breen had recently contracted COVID-19 but had returned to work at Allen after a week and a half of rest. But when the hospital sent her home, her father Dr. Philip C. Breen brought her back to her family’s home in Charlottesville to help her properly recuperate. On Sunday, however, officers from the Charlottesville Police Department responded to a call seeking medical assistance after Breen made an attempt on her life.
