In the United States, we have over 500,000 Americans dead from the coronavirus. The Americans who continue to deny reality are the real danger to the country. 

The far-right continues to play stupid games and guess what: They're winning the stupid prizes.

The coronavirus claims a member of the U.S Congress. Another member of the House passed away after contracting the deadly disease. Rep. Ron Wright (R-TX) passed away on Sunday at the age of 67. The Dallas-area lawmaker contracted the coronavirus in late January,

President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas and the Texas Republican chairman Allen West were notified oif the passing.

Abbott releases a statement on the passing of Wright.

“I am deeply saddened to learn of the passing of U.S. Rep. Ron Wright. Ron was a principled leader who fought to preserve Texas values and was an exemplary representative of his district. His personal strength and commitment to standing up for the unborn were unwavering. He leaves behind a tremendous legacy for future generations of Texans. Cecilia and I send our prayers to Ron's wife, Susan, his family and loved ones.”

Wright is the latest Republican to pass away from the coronavirus. Luke Letlow, the Louisiana congressman-elect died a few days before he was to be sworn in to Congress.

"Congressman Ron Wright passed away peacefully at the age of 67 on Feb. 7, 2021. His wife Susan was by his side and he is now in the presence of their Lord and Savior," the statement read. "For the previous two weeks, Ron and Susan had been admitted to Baylor Hospital in Dallas after contracting COVID-19."

Wright's congressional office announced that he had tested positive for Covid-19 on January 21 with the congressman saying at the time in a statement, "I am experiencing minor symptoms, but overall, I feel okay and will continue working for the people of the 6th District from home this week."

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) said in a statement Monday, "Our hearts are heavy with the news of Ron's passing. Judy and I send our heartfelt prayers to Susan and their children during this very difficult time."

"Ron Wright was a fighter who passionately served his constituents, Texas, and America," McCarthy said.

The statement from Wright's office on Monday noted that the congressman has also battled cancer.

"Over the past few years, Congressman Wright had kept a rigorous work schedule on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives and at home in Texas' Congressional District 6 while being treated for cancer," it said.

During his cancer fight, GOP members paid tribute to Wright in December by donning bow ties at the Capitol, which he frequently wore.

Wright had represented Texas's sixth congressional district since January 2019.

Wright represented the 6th Congressional District. The district is Arlington to the southern tiers of the Dallas-Ft. Worth metroplex. The lawmaker replaced Joe Barton in 2019.

Ronald Jack Wright only served one term and was only six weeks into his second term.

According to the CDC, there is still not enough information on antibodies for COVID-19 and whether they can prevent someone from getting reinfected. It still recommends that people with a positive antibody test follow recommendations for protecting themselves and others.

The coronavirus doesn't care about your age, race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, politics, economic or social standings. It doesn't care about your business, your performances, your personal finances and travel.  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. Take this seriously. You only have one life!
