A viral TikTok video is highlighting Seattle Children’s Hospital’s helicopter landing procedures. Lab Maddy (@Roombafightclub) claims in the video—which has surpassed 4.5 million views—that neighborhood opposition forces critically ill children to travel by ambulance for the final stretch of their emergency care.
Maddy criticizes these delays, which she attributes to local residential influence in Laurelhurst, an affluent neighborhood in northeast Seattle near Lake Washington and the University of Washington.
