Anti-vaxx nurse dies from COVID-19 in Louisiana

A Louisiana nurse who questioned the safety of vaccines has died of complications from COVID-19. Olivia Guidry, a registered nurse in the emergency department at Ochsner Lafayette General, died Saturday after being hospitalized for the coronavirus in the intensive care unit, reported The Advocate. “Today is a sad day for my ER family and I,” her colleague Nick Berthelot posted on Facebook. “Your contagious laugh and smile will truly be missed Liv. Until we meet again sweet girl.” Coronavirus deaths have decreased dramatically in Louisiana since last year, but the state has seen a recent increase that experts blame on its low vaccination rate of 36 percent, compared with about 50 percent nationally, and Guidry questioned their safety on her own social media account.
