Young people die of the flu every year. This tragic but not unique for an illness that becomes a pandemic.

Y’all are way too fricking hard on SFP. He never claimed any medical expertise, he just gave his opinion on an internet message board.

I wonder if the tar was helping along with the herbs?

So she worked at a medical facility. Was self admittedly feeling unwell, and continued to work for a few more days?

According to the NOLA article on front page, all recent deaths, except for an 83 yr, had an underlying medical condition.

What kind of employer continues to let a known sick person continue to work for 5 days at a time like this, and I would say that about any job, but at a health clinic no less. The fact that this girl died seems to be the least fricked up thing about this story

Not only a health clinic but one where she specifically worked with HIV+ patients.

She went from walking the dog to dead a short while later? I don’t believe it was covid

Covid patients dying seem to be bed ridden and suffering long before death not walking their dog

It never explains her sudden cause of death, just nefariously implies coronavirus

maybe because Dr. Fauci is also downplaying it


Dr. Fauci is an analytical person and he realizes that one report on Hydroxychloroquine is just that, one report. It is premature for him to be optimistic at this point where others like Oz and the general public can are hopeful.

The NOLA .com story is irresponsible since there isn't proof that the healthcare worker died from the corona virus. If the cv wrecks havoc on your respiratory functions, then there is no way this woman was walking the dog the day before. Doesn't add up.

Bump for more info ??

Also,

Since her test results had not yet come back, it would not have been considered a covid death. I wonder if she was one of the ones added today.

Any new info? If we don't get a follow-up from NOLA.com, safe to assume it was not Covid and the article was panic-inducing clickbait.
