I know, this is Actually Infuriating, but … Also she didn’t just leave the now-dead kid in the car, she left two in there to die, but one survived. My guess: with brain damage. “Always Beautiful Medical Spa” FFS. Duck lips were totally worth it.

A baby died after his mother left him and his 2-year-old sibling inside a car while she was getting lip filler at a Bakersfield medical spa on a 101-degree day, authorities said.

It is estimated that Hernandez’s children were in the vehicle without air-conditioning for 90 minutes, wrote Det. Kyle McNabb, noting that the internal temperature of a car can rise to a blistering 143 degrees in just one hour of 100-degree weather.

Hernandez told police she found her baby foaming at the mouth and having an apparent seizure after emerging from her procedure at Always Beautiful Medical Spa, according to the police report. She frantically dialed 911, and both her children were transported to a hospital for treatment.

By the time her 1-year-old arrived at Adventist Health hospital, he wasn’t breathing, had no pulse, his lips were blue, and he had an internal body temperature of 107.2 degrees

    In most US cities, no, it’s not an option. But we should work to make it an option :)

      In most cities in the US? That’s crazy to me as a European lol. I guess I was acting privileged then.

        Nah, you good. There’s no way for you to know without way too much time investment.

        New York, San Francisco, and maybe Chicago have workable systems. Atlanta’s right on the edge, I would say. San Francisco seemed the best by far, but it still wasn’t perfect. It also helps that San Francisco is tiny. I haven’t been to Seattle or Portland, though. Maybe those are better

        The smaller cities have super trash transit, mostly because they’re too spread out

          San Francisco is tiny

          You mean area wise? 😅 Population wise it’s like 8 times the size of my city…
