Back in the United States, Florida Hospital and Orlando Regional Medical Center have announced they will not bill the victims of the June 12 Pulse nightclub massacre for their medical care. Forty-nine people died during the attack. Most of the victims were young Latino members of the LGBTQ community. This is one of the survivors, Rodney Sumter.

Rodney Sumter: “I was shot in the back, and I had like a hole the size of a baseball that had to be shrunken. And my right arm was reconstructed, and this one’s the one that’s bothering me the most. To hear that we don’t even have to pay back the hospital bills, as well, you know, that’s definitely a relief. I was in there for 16 days, so, you know, it’s definitely a big thing for me. They never really told me the estimated amount that it would have been for my hospital bill. But without insurance, I think me being there for 16 days was, you know, pretty crazy.”
