The congressman died last night at Shreveport hospital, where he had been since December 19, now in an intensive care unit. The doctor treating him with steroids and Remdesivir admitted that Letlow had no other pathologies and claimed that he died of a “cardiac event.”
The young congressman was recently elected and was expected to take office last Sunday. But his worsening health had already led him to a terminal phase of the infection, at which point he died.
The notoriety that Letlow had sought and, in fact, achieved as an agitator against social detachment, the use of a mask and the confinement measures made his death a very commented event on social networks.
Many of the commentators were relentless in classifying Letlow as a “covidiot” and attributing his death precisely to contempt for those precautions that he constantly sought to devalue.
One of Letlow’s speeches went viral, stating that many steps have already been taken, at the state and federal level, to protect against the pandemic, but that now the real danger is that of economic paralysis.
Our economy is vital to the future of our state and our country.

Other commentators accused the Republican politician of being responsible not only for his own death, but also for the potential contagion from the people he contacted and who may have been infected.
#LukeLetlow He didn’t wear masks, he didn’t take social distance, he pushed for school reopens too early, he didn’t pay attention to science, and he didn’t take # COVID-19 seriously. I’m fed up and I don’t care. His life mattered no more than the 338,000 other dead Americans

Luke Letlow played down the virus and held multiple unmasked rallies.
Let’s take a moment to reflect: How many other people died as a result of your behavior?
We can all take comfort in the fact that his death was God’s will.

There were even those who recalled that if Letlow had been a gay patient infected with the AIDS virus, the sheriffs of the southern states would have executed him long ago.
Authorities must verify who else Letlow infected.
I have no thoughts or prayers for him …

You are so correct! These people who spread it are suicide bombers
