Broward County, Florida: 3 educators died within about 24 hours from Covid-19 complications
The week before classes begin, three educators in Broward County, Florida, have died within about 24 hours of each other from Covid-19 related complications, local education officials said.
Two teachers and a teaching assistant, all women, died from Covid-19 this week, according to a statement from Broward Teachers Union President Anna Fusco. All three were unvaccinated.
Fusco identified the three teachers as Janice Wright, 48, a teacher/Union Leader at Pinewood Elementary School; Yolanda Hudson Williams, 49, a teacher assistant at Dillard Elementary School; and Katina Jones, 49, also a teacher at Dillard Elementary School.
Fusco previously said four employees had died of Covid-19 related complications, but she said in the corrected statement Friday afternoon that the fourth was a Broward County Public Schools graduate who had "close ties to the school district through her job."
