COVID kills 6 members of family in 3 weeks

[left-of-center2012]

The nightmare began in late August when her 48-year-old uncle, Tyrone Moreland, died. A day after the family gathered for his funeral, her beloved 89-year-old grandmother, Lillie Mae Dukes Moreland, was hospitalized. The longtime fixture in Belle Glade, who had nine children and also raised Wilson, died 24 hours later.

In quick succession, three more cousins, including 48-year-old Shatara Dukes and 53-year-old Lisa Wiggins, followed.

On Sunday, 44-year-old Trentarian Moreland, who spent years as an assistant football coach at various Palm Beach County high schools, succumbed to the deadly virus.

Lisa Wilson is baffled about why her family members so steadfastly refused to get vaccinated. “In my grandmother’s case, I think some of her children advised her not to do it,” Wilson said. “They said she was too old, that it wasn’t safe, that she never left the house, anyway.”

1. Sad, her children killed her and themselves.

2. I live in a blue city in Montana.

We have the highest vax rates in the state and our local hospital ICU is full to the brim with Covid infections. My neighbor is a critical care nurse and she told me that last week the Covid patients currently admitted were between the ages of 34 and 55. Today I saw obituaries of a 37 year old who died of multi organ failure due to Covid pneumonia and a 53 year old who never made it off the vent. Covid kills. Delta ain’t playing.

4. Telling an 89 year woman not to get vaccinated? WTF?

And that was mostly at a time when most of the deaths were in people over 80, and they were the priority group for early vaccination.

I'm surprised she lasted as long as she did. I wonder if there was a will involved.

5. I'm calling this "death by propaganda".

How can you possibly be baffled? Social media brainwashing is the #1 common factor in all of these deaths. Facebook has a lot of explaining to do!
