Elizabeth Warren's oldest brother passed away from the coronavirus. |
He will never claim responsibility for the failures of the government. It's always someone's else fault.
It hasn't made it to Trump or Vice President Mike Pence and their families. It will eventually.
Former Democratic presidential candidate, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) confirmed that her oldest brother passed away from the coronavirus.
Her brother Donald R. Herring, 86 died from the coronavirus. She posted a series of tweets to confirm that her brother's death was tied to symptoms of the coronavirus.
Herring was survived by his wife Judith Anne Herring, two sons John and Jeffrey. He has sister Warren and brothers David and John. His first wife Nancy died from cancer.
Warren has spoke about her brothers during the presidential campaign often noting their military experience. Donald was a Republican and supported Trump for president.
My oldest brother, Don Reed, died from coronavirus on Tuesday evening. He joined the Air Force at 19 and spent his career in the military, including five and a half years off and on in combat in Vietnam. He was charming and funny, a natural leader. https://t.co/b8m0xKzAmM— Elizabeth Warren (@ewarren) April 23, 2020
What made him extra special was his smile—quick and crooked, it always seemed to generate its own light, one that lit up everyone around him. pic.twitter.com/SFMOaBVCN3— Elizabeth Warren (@ewarren) April 23, 2020
I’m grateful to the nurses and frontline staff who took care of him, but it’s hard to know that there was no family to hold his hand or to say “I love you” one more time—and no funeral for those of us who loved him to hold each other close. I'll miss you dearly my brother. pic.twitter.com/oOG6HArEL6— Elizabeth Warren (@ewarren) April 23, 2020
This disease doesn't give a fuck about your politics, your concerns about the economy or your "freedoms." The coronavirus has spread across the world and we're "in a world of uncertainty."
Here's the map.
Here's things to remember about the coronavirus.
1. Wash your hands frequently
2. Do not touch your face (mouth, nose and eyes)
3. Cough into your elbow instead of your hands.
4. Keep a safe distance (at least 6 to 10 feet) from individuals.
5. If you're sick, please stay home.
6. There is no treatment or cure for the COVID-19.
7. Follow state and federal laws regarding this.
8. Do not hoard items like toilet paper, bread, gloves, hand sanitizer, etc.
9. Use social media like Facebook Messenger, Google Duo, Skype or social media to connect.
10. COVID-19 can live on surfaces for more than 72 hours. Including steel, plastic and cardboard.
11. A pandemic has no timeline.
12. COVID-19 doesn't care about borders.
13. If you deliberately infect other individuals, food and first responders, you will be charged with crime.
The coronavirus doesn't care about your age, race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, politics, economic or social standings. It doesn't care about anything. It's a living organism that causes mild symptoms that include: fever, sore throats, chills, respiratory issues, loss of taste or smell and other unknown symptoms. If you have a weak immune system or health issues, your risk increases.
Death does happen to at least 40% of those who are affected by COVID-19.
Healthy people can die from this.
