Eldorado Posted September 30, 2021 Author #2 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Tyler Gilreath, a student at the University of North Carolina-Wilmington, died on Tuesday after testing positive for the coronavirus, which he contracted just days after returning to college. The student, according to his mother Tamra Demello, thought his age would protect him from the virus. "I cajoled, encouraged, threatened, and nagged for him to get vaccinated. "He was too busy and/or concerned about the possible long term heart issues," Ms Demello shared on social media. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/college-student-who-promised-his-mom-he-would-get-vaccinated-at-school-dies-from-covid-19/ar-AAOZmWf? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
