SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (KRON) - San Francisco nurse Mike Schultz shared a photo on social media back in May that visibly showed how much COVID-19 affected him.
“I wanted to show everyone how badly being sedated for 6 weeks on a ventilator or intubated can be,” he wrote.
Schultz contracted the virus after attending a festival in Miami, according to BuzzFeed News.
In addition to making national headlines, a GoFundMe made in his honor raised over $20,000.
Nearly a year has gone by, and Schultz is now facing backlash from an anonymous Instagram called @gaysovercovid.
The account posts gay men partying as the coronavirus pandemic continues to surge and take lives.
Schultz reportedly posted a photo to his Instagram saying, "less than three weeks to (Puerto Vallarta). Can't wait!"
And in a recent @gaysovercovid post, several Instagram users called-out the reckless behavior, specifically on an alleged gathering in Mexico.
"And the cowards deleted their account," @jeff_spezio commented.
"Any of them dead yet?" @cressmanjim wrote.
It is unconfirmed if Schultz attended the party, and Schultz has since deleted his Instagram account.
