A 32-year old Los Angeles woman has been identified as the fourth Salvadoran immigrant to die in the U.S. after being infected by the coronavirus, according to that country’s consulate.

In a report by the local Telemundo station, her family said Jéssica Beatriz Cortez immigrated to the U.S. three years ago. Her brother said that she was diagnosed with COVID-19 one day last week and died the next.

“She began by complaining about body aches, that she felt a heaviness and fatigue,” said Cesar Cortez in an interview with the television station.Cortez said the family was surprised by how quickly she went from feeling ill to dying. She was hospitalized on Friday, he said, and died the very next day.

“This all happened in less than a week,” Cortez said. “I got a call that she was in very grave condition… I left what I was doing and went to the hospital and when I got there, she had already passed away.”“That’s the hardest part,” Cortez said. “That she died alone.”He said he did not think the family would even be able to witness his sister’s cremation.

Consular officials told the Los Angeles Times that along with Jéssica Beatriz Cortez, three other Salvadoran immigrants have died in New York.

stanverrett Lawd! Tragic and somewhat suspicious. Ought to be investigated seriously.

askjillian Those of us old enough to remember the HIV AIDS virus in the late 80's. When people started taking the government approved drug AZT, people went from dying in months to dying in days. Be aware, cause history has a bad habit of repeating itself.

Blasphemy

askjillian Don’t trust this LA Times article at all. No doubt she died of something. But what exactly?

I don’t trust your data .... too many inconsistencies

This pretty woman! Anyone or group of ppl that originated that virus, virus will continue to torment them till eternity

I have seen this article pop up on my feed many times in the past week. Horrible, sad news. Serious question: did she have any preexisting conditions, and what were they? And if so, why wasn’t this information included in the article?

OMG. RIP beautiful angel 🙏🙏🙏🇮🇪

If it was septic shock, the rapidity of decline would not be unexpected. Of course, I have no way of knowing if that actually was the condition of the person.

are we scoreboarding immigrant death rates by country now?

So young. Breaks my heart.

Ofc theres a paywall. RIP her soul.

😰

Shame the media has been lying for years. No one believes the la Times liberal propaganda bs.

Very sad
