Jayme Williams, a deputy with the Itasca County Sheriffs Office, first became ill with COVID-19 on Dec. 11, according to a GoFundMe organized to support his family as he leaves behind a wife and three children, ages 17, 14 and 12. ...
The GoFundMe had raised more than $13,000 of its $50,000 goal as of Wednesday. The money will support Williams wife and children.
The fundraiser does not specify if Williams had received a COVID-19 vaccine, though his Facebook page reveals a post he made in September linking to a webpage about supposed vaccine adverse reactions, on which he commented: 'Take your vaccine and shove it.' He has also made posts doubting the efficacy of mask-wearing as a COVID mitigation tactic.

According to this article, an MRI revealed a laceration on his liver and internal bleeding. The laceration may have been caused by his coughing. So covid can result in coughing that's violent enough to cause liver lacerations and internal bleeding - but let's own the libs by rejecting masks and vaccines?

I'm guessing Hugh is going to have a great New Year's Eve!

(82,849 posts)Daddy thought it was more important to pwn the libs by refusing to get vaccinated than to be your father. It will be years before you will be able to conclude whether that was a good thing or a bad thing.

(4,183 posts)for COVID hospital bills. That's the real kicker here that's never reported. Not only do you die, but someone is going to have to pay a bill on top of that. Hope he had good (government sponsered) health and life insurance.
Did you ever notice out the ones with the highest anti-government attitudes seem to be the ones most dependent on it?

No matter from which school of lower learning they studied, their graduation ceremony is always held 6 feet underground.
And their children will suffer because of it.

(8,982 posts)Almost all of these people that died are bootstrapping Trump supporters, had no health insurance and needed a Go-Fund-Me campaign to cover costs.
TheRealNorth
(9,647 posts)You would think they would have life insurance too given the line of work. So I am thinking the family are probably a bunch of grifters, like their God-King.

The sheriff might have gotten the shot, but they did not shoot the deputy.
But you gave this guy a field promotion he did not deserve.
"Jayme Williams, a deputy"
Is there a sheriff at the linked story?
