Using $this when not in object context

I just created a laravel project "^9.19" with jetstream and livewire "^2.5" but it created a simple component and got the following error. This is my current code:

patient.blade.php

@foreach ($patients as $patient)
    {{$patient->name}}
@endforeach

{{ $patients->links() }}

Patient.php

namespace App\Http\Livewire; use App\Models\User; use Livewire\Component; use Livewire\WithPagination;

class Patients extends Component { use WithPagination;

public function render()
{
    return view('livewire.patients'
    , [
        'patients' => User::paginate(10),
    ]
    );
}

}
