Ladies and gentlemen, the vice chairman of the Massachusetts Republican State Committee:
“Lets put it this way: When I went down to Washington, D.C., for the White House Hanukkah event, I was perfectly fine. And three days later after that event, I was in the hospital … ready to be put on a lifesaving ventilator.”

I see she's wearing a relic of Sydney Powell.

Why is this POS getting a vaccine instead of the health worker she's displacing?
Don't say "it's to show it's safe", after all the lies these murderers have been spreading.

What is up with that headline "dies *with* COVID"? Is this a conservative news outlet that just can't bring itself to admit that he died *from* COVID?

He may have been killed by another condition brought on by having a severe case of COVID. People are dying of heart attacks, pulmonary embolisms, etc while hospitalized with COVID. The COVID brings about the other maladies. If they didn’t have COVID, they wouldn’t have the the other conditions.

WaPo said no underlying conditions:
"This week, he was in critical condition but showing signs of recovery, G.E. Ghali, the chancellor of LSU Health Shreveport, told The Advocate. But on Tuesday, he suffered a “cardiac event” and died, Ghali said. Asked if any underlying conditions might have contributed to his death, Ghali said, “None. All covid related,” The Advocate reported."

From December 9:
“Letlow is planning to travel to Washington, D.C. this week with his wife, Julia, to attend the White House Christmas Party.”

This is from the article posted above:
LSU Health Shreveport Chancellor G.E. Ghali said Letlow died from a heart attack following a procedure related to the infection.

"It's devastating to our entire team," Ghali said.

"He had no underlying conditions," Ghali said. "It was just COVID."

It's so tragic. Especially for his poor children.

It's too bad he couldn't bring himself to take more precautions. Really hope people are watching this and taking Covid much more seriously.

Incredible.

No— no one is ever appointed to the House of Representatives, it is only filled by special election.

I am disgusted by Kevin McCarthy who has done nothing to slow this pandemic expressing his sadness over the loss.

Letlow's death is a tragedy. I hope it inspires at least a few anti-maskers/people who refuse to stop socializing to rethink their actions, but I have no confidence it will have any impact at all.

Those poor children.

Wow. I'm sad for the small children who have no fault in this.

A friend of mine of many years died on Christmas Eve. He was not an anti masker or AFAIK in a high risk group or a high public contact employee. He ran his own small company. No funeral. This illness also hurts the innocent. Thanks Trump for your inaction.

I’m guessing John Bel Edwards (D) can appoint the replacement. This will pad the Dem majority in the House.

Incredible.

I thought about this as people on twitter are roasting him.

Here is my issue, he put his stupid ideals over his children and their well being. And he infected others with the virus without a care in the world.
