  3. So very, very sad.

    Larry King is also dying of Covid19 as you read this.

    Dawn Wells died of Covid19 this week - who would have thought when she was filming Gilligan's Island that a virus from China would circle the world, come the USA and infect her and kill her? This is a deadly virus. Not a cold.

  4. Did she have a pre existing condition?

  5. Sad to hear, especially after having her son.

    On a separate but related note, and with complete respect for the deceased and her family; will Mean Jean give COVID-19 probation for this or just not file on it?

  6. King and Dawn are elderly. What were JoEllens "contributing" conditions ?

  7. it would appear that she got covid while doing petersuckers job, I hope the county has to pay the family big time.

    Maybe being pregnant made things worse, I don’t know. God bless her and her family.

  9. Maybe all these people would have a better chance if the dimwits hadn’t lied about the medicines that save lives will kill them. Their narrative against Trump is costing lives by the thousands daily. The doctors are screaming bloody murder for the drugs that saved the president and other high profile politicians and can’t use them because of one party’s TDS.

  12. A 41 year of Penn. State Senator just died today of covid. A 42 year old seantor died last week. And a 60 year old W.V. politician died last week too. The new virus goes after youth. Just like the 1918 flu did.

    And Trump's Chief of White House security just had a leg amputated due to covid.

    Your Pre-existing condition = Your human and alive. That all the virus needs.

  13. It so sad. This is upsetting. A year ago all was well and we were healthy.

    And Republican and "Covid doubter" Larry King is dying as I type this- of Covid19. It got him. Sad. People with his money could just stay home. Not work. Order what they need online and "ride this out". He had the funds to just isolate and live. Others do not have that luxury. Poor Larry.

  15. You white folks are a bunch of sellouts. I bet everyone of you on this blog where here last week lambasting the mayor and health department director for wanting to shut businesses down in order to control the virus, now you sellouts are here trying to talk like you got good sense, and acting like you are not the haters you are.

  16. Sorry that this woman died, but....

    the article implies that she died from complications arising from her pregnancy. Too bad local media is so terrible that they leave out the important details.

    This woman may have "tested positive" with a PCR test, but then most people now realize that it doesn't actually test for the virus, it can't be used for diagnosis, and area facilities set the cycle threshold way too high rendering the test useless.

    If she died from hemorrhage, pulmonary hypertension, allergic reaction or something else, the media wouldn't report it. The COVID fear-mongering must continue on full-blast because Dr. Fauci now says we won't have a chance to return to normal until Fall 2021 at the earliest.

    P.S. Remember, that JP Baker is a victim. Never criticize Baker because she's a victim, she told us so.

  17. It got the wrong one. Baker is the one that really deserves it.

    1. Larry King has resembled a corpse for 10 years. He is a poster child of existing conditions.

  20. 2:46, your math is a bit off. No where close to one in ten.

  23. courts are getting bashed by this virus

    prosecutors have jobs they have to work with the public man, cops, witnesses, victims, defense attorneys, probation officers, judges, clerks, etc etc they talk to these people they show up in court. defense bar too. judges too!

    damn this virus is wrecking courts. backlog for trials. getting called for jury DUTY is going to be a hard core DUTY and gonna get rough when judges say 'no' to all the efforts to get off a panel.
