The 28 September 2026 roundtable in the Kennedy Caucus Room brought together doctors, nurses, patients and families to share what they experienced under hospital COVID protocols. Here are some of the people connected with it.

Dr Margaret Aranda was an anaesthesiology and critical care specialist during COVID, running a clinic focused on keeping people out of hospital. After losing two patients, she begged an emergency room doctor to go upstairs and tell the team to let her patient go home, and he did. She now helps tackle the hospital protocol problem with the I Do Not Consent Form™, written by an anonymous "Hospital Insider" (JD, RN) and Laura Bartlett, sister of Dr Richard Bartlett. You'll find it at IdoNotConsentForm.com.

Rebecca Charles Jackson lost her 28-year-old disabled daughter, Danielle Cathleen Alvarez, on 6 October 2021, after Danielle was given a cocktail of drugs including ten days of remdesivir. Rebecca sat in the front row of the Kennedy Caucus Room to hear the panellists' testimony.

Gail Macrae worked as a registered nurse at a Santa Rosa, California hospital, where she saw rigid protocols imposed and alternative treatments denied. As one of the 21 panellists, she received a rousing round of applause when she apologised on behalf of the nursing profession.

Brad and Gail Seiler shared their story from both sides of the hospital bed. Brad, a registered critical care nurse and former Army captain, described what he witnessed during Gail's 15-day hospitalisation in December 2021, his concerns about her treatment, and how he managed to bring her home. Gail spoke from the patient's perspective about how Brad got her out.

Julie Threet was injured by two Moderna shots, lost her healthcare job at Enloe for refusing the booster, and lost her mother, Jane Williamson, to the shot. She prepared the report on remdesivir and hospital protocol deaths that Ronald delivered to Senator Johnson's staff.
