A Southern California family is suing a medical center for elder abuse, negligence and wrongful death, after alleging they found their mother in disturbing, unsanitary conditions, including maggots in her body, when she was being treated for Covid-19.

Concepcion Covarrubias, 65, was admitted to South Coast Global Medical Center in Santa Ana On July 7, 2020, after contracting Covid-19.

Covarrubias’s family were able to visit her in person after weeks of hospitalization as she recovered from Covid, NBC Los Angeles reports. “He picks from her nose. He gets a maggot,” Mijango told NBC Los Angeles. “Then he sees more maggots, coming out of her nose. That’s when basically, it was devastating.”
