January 3, 2021 Coronavirus, Republicans

Penn Live reports:

Pennsylvania Rep. Mike Reese died Saturday afternoon after suffering an apparent brain aneurysm, his family announced. Reese — who was elected in 2008 to serve parts of Westmoreland and Somerset counties — was 42 years old. He is survived by his wife Angela and three children. Reese was elected to Republican caucus chairman for the 2020–21 session. He announced in early December that he was in quarantine after testing positive for the coronavirus. It’s unclear if his death was related to the virus.

Four Republican elected officials (1. Dick Hinch, 2. Luke Letlow, 3. Ben Chafin and 4. Mike Reese) have died in the past few weeks after contracting coronavirus/Covid. And, of course, former Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain last summer. https://t.co/EkzesA8x7m
