Three teachers who shared a summer classroom at a school in Arizona all contracted coronavirus last month, leaving one of them dead.
Kimberley Chavez Lopez Byrd, 61, died June 26, less than two weeks after she was hospitalized. The other two teachers -- Jena Martinez and Angela Skillings -- said they're still struggling with the effects of the virus that has killed nearly 135,000 people nationwide. All three teachers wore masks and gloves, used hand sanitizer and socially distanced, but still got sick, according to school officials at the small community in the eastern part of the state.
ponygirl1956 Was the classroom contaminated ?
You guys just never stop. Searching out stories like this. Its so sad that this network has become what it has. You only report sorrow with an agenda
Some people on this thread are stating that because she was overweight, had asthma, lupus etc. that was why she died. Coronavirus is why she died. I’m a teacher with no underlying conditions, and this terrifies me.
Sad
This was my mom. She had asthma, lupus, and diabetes. She lived with all of them her entire life. But it was when she contracted Covid19 that the already damaged lungs were completely destroyed. I'm telling you, Covid19 is no joke. 30 year olds are now dying from it.
And now govt wants to reopen schools .....!
But, but, Trump and DeVos look at the glass as half full! Two of the three teachers are alive (so far) and are simply sick! Winning! LetThemEatCovid So brave of Trumpers to sacrifice other people's children! MAGA can't wait!
What ya expect it's shitty Clinton News Network!!
I’m sure they were over 62 and didn’t want to retire as most of them don’t.
BLM supporters shot a young mother to death.
CNN will now become the classroom virus channel. Never bothered to report on the nursing home deaths scandal. Those 'facts' aren't worthy of reporting because only about half of the 134 thousand US deaths occurred in nursing homes.
She was an obese 61 year old grandmother with a PRE existing lung condition. She was always gonna die and we are opening up our schools.
My son got it, lasted a week, all better now, nobody around him got sick!
They were probably unheathy ppl to begin with.
Oh my, that is horrendously sad. I had stop crying because I am at work on my lunch break. This is all so sad and I pray for that family.
So could cnn have mentioned either in the tweet or story title that the classrooms were empty of children? The reason we have a problem with their news is that their news always needs to be vetted. What can’t they higher good writers?
She caught it from a coworker not a kid.
I would be so ashamed to admit I watch CNN. Propaganda. Look up Project Mockingbird.
What were their pre existing conditions?
Should of just given them HCQ and they would have been cured.
The fact that they were teachers has literally nothing to do with this. Nothing.
Yeah. OPEN THE SCHOOLS!!! Ignoring the virus that’s killing 140k of Americans doesn’t mean it’s not happening.
So since nobody else got sick there me and she got sick from somewhere else this is a deceitful lie by
New fear mongering tactic to keep schools closed. People also die of the flu yet schools don't close during flu season for it TheGreatAwakening EnemyOfThePeople controlavirus
I’m confused; Arizona didn’t shutdown schools this past semester?
Oh my now that the President is talking going back to school CNN will start posting shit about this Hahahahha never fails with them
How is it that only CNN try’s to tweet every coronavirus person in the nation! Fear is not working anymore!
Hehe Now u tweet about teachers. Dooms day News(DDN)
Wake up America, they all wore masks and gloves and still got sick and the one who died was 61 and had asthma, diabetes, and lupus.
Nobody is invincible!
Teachers not to smart weren't wearing mask and they were probably pushing to get kids in school
Children of any school age are A systematic carriers. They go to school and bring it home to mom dad, grandma, grandpa, aunt, uncle, sister, brother, anyone in public. If the child doesn’t get sick too. Schools can’t open. End of discussion. it isn’t safe. They’ll do fine online.
Time to open up.
Tragic to be sure . Something to be mindful of is even wearing a mask and cleaning your hands isn’t enough . You should touch your mask unless you’ve just cleaned your hands and you can’t touch your clothes or shoes with immediately cleaning your hands . Folks over 55 are
Trace back to any child will be futile since infection is close to nil according to the science. Nice try .
Get used to similar stories like this. As a nurse in dealing with Covid patients and with PPE, it still scares the hell out of me to have it and/or bring it home to my family. I can’t imagine how a lot of teachers will feel to work in a Petri dish. Trumpsvirus
realDonaldTrump VP BetsyDeVosED DOESANYONECARE ⁉️
No masks.
It's like you're gloating Bout a teacher dying
Those people are White and Fat. In today's 'Woke' Covid society, they're Toast.
Sad but what’s buried in the article is the fact that she had co morbidity asthma, lupus, diabetes and there were NO students in the classroom!!! Only teachers teaching virtually from the classroom.
Only one person to blame realDonaldTrump His rhetoric about the economy being more important than people’s lives lead to GOP leaders in such states to open before it was medically safe. BetsyDeVosED should resign and appear in front of congress for her role regarding this
Unfortunate. Prayers 🙏
Let's close school forever then I guess?
