Several doctors on stage at Kamala Harris' Houston rally stood confused and unable to act when a supporter suffered a medical emergency.
While much of the press coverage came from Beyonce's appearance, at one point, Harris brought out several abortion doctors to speak about the over-turning of Roe vs. Wade.
As Dr. Richard Todd Ivy, an OB/GYN, spoke to the crowd to talk about abortion right, someone clearly needed medical attention.
None of the doctors went to assist and stood there, helplessly, as eventually, Ivy pointed the attendee's issue.
'I think someone needs some medical assistance over here,' he said, as he pointed toward the injured member of the crowd.

After waiting briefly to finally get medical attention to them, Ivy confirmed 'they're okay.'
After the supporter - who was never identified - was confirmed fine, they went on with the rally.
Beyoncé took the stage to rally support for Kamala Harris on Friday night at a massive rally in Texas as the race for the White House is a dead heat.
'We are so happy to be standing here on this stage as proud country Texas women supporting and celebrating the one and only Vice President Kamala Harris,' she said.
The megastar praised Harris and said she is pushing unity while praising the energy and 'positivity' in the room.
'We are are at the precipice of an incredible shift, brink of history,' Beyoncé said.
Beyoncé said she was not there as a celebrity but as a mother 'who cares deeply about the world my children and all our children live in, a world where we have the freedom to control our bodies.'
'Imagine our daughters growing up seeing what's possible with no ceilings, no limitations,' she said.

She also told the roaring crowd to imagine the sacrifices their grandmothers have made 'so we can witness the strength of a woman standing in her power, reimagining what leadership is.'
Beyoncé addressed everyone stating 'your vote is one of the most valuable tools, and we need you.'
She said Texas has a role to play and needs to be part of something bigger.
'It's time for America to sing a new song,' she said.
Beyoncé was not the only celebrity to take the stage in Texas. Actress and business woman Jessica Alba also spoke and music legend Willie Nelson performed.
She was also joined on stage by fellow former Destiny's Child member Kelly Rowland who spoke first.
The much-coveted Beyoncé endorsement comes months after Democrats were devastated by her no-show at the Democratic National Convention over the summer.
Harris uses Beyoncé's 'Freedom' as her walk-up song at campaign rallies.
In August, rumors swirled that the Queen B herself would be making an appearance at the convention in Chicago ahead of Harris accepting the nomination.
Her team and the campaign did not dismiss the rumors sparking widespread excitement.
But it did not happen leaving thousands of party members and millions of viewers watching on TV disappointed.
