How Zedd and a Nurse Teamed Up to Surprise a Critically Ill Superfan In the Hospital
EDM Twitter is a digital hellscape where dignity goes to die—but sometimes it can be a source of magic. Such was the case with Jessica, a 31-year-old registered nurse tasked with the care of Angie, a patient in her intensive care unit and a superfan of leading electronic music artist Zedd. From the moment she used Twitter to make an emotional plea on behalf of her ailing patient, Jessica experienced a snowball effect that proved the electronic dance music community is greater than the sum of its parts. Jessica, who spoke with EDM.com via Zoom and asked us not to include her or Angie’s last names for privacy, said Angie is in her early 40’s and has been critically ill in the ICU for over three months.

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: NurPhoto / Getty For some time now, anti-vaxxers have cited the least corroborated “science” in suggesting herd immunity and intentionally infecting oneself with COVID-19 as viable alternatives to getting the shot despite all the leading immunologists and health experts saying they aren’t. Unfortunately, denying science in the name of being anti-authoritarian isn’t just an American thing—it’s a global phenomenon. It’s even more unfortunate that the misguided efforts of the self-infected have cost a beloved folk singer in the Czech Republic her life. 57-year-old Hana Horka, who sings lead with her band Asonance, died Sunday after deliberately infecting herself with COVID, according to what her son, Jan Rek, told BBC News. Rek said his mother was infested d...
