(CNN) Health care workers at Jacksonville's Baptist Medical Center in Florida are hearing panic, fear and regret from many of their patients as an increasing number are admitted for Covid-19 complications -- and as many need to be put on ventilators. So, they're begging for it," Chief Nursing Officer Tammy Daniel told CNN. "They're desperate because they are gasping for air, they can't breathe, they are scared, they feel like they're going to pass away. " Baptist Medical Center has seen its Covid-19 patient numbers multiplying every day, Daniel said. But it is one of only two states in which every county in the state is listed as having high Covid-19 transmission.
