Coronavirus kills Ohio Army vet who refused to wear face mask
[FoxNews] The coronavirus has claimed the life of an Ohio Army veteran who said before his death on Facebook that he refused to wear a face mask.
Richard Rose III, 37, of Port Clinton, died on July 4 of complications related to the novel coronavirus, according to an online obituary.
His death comes after his April 28 post where Rose said he refused to purchase a face mask amid the pandemic despite expert recommendations to do so.
“Let [me] make this clear,” Rose wrote. “I’m not buying a f—ing mask. I’ve made it this far by not buying into that damn hype.”
You pays your money and you takes your chances. No way of knowing whether the exposure occurred while not wearing a mask. | It’s not clear if Rose suffered from any underlying health issues.
That, too.We know some factors that increase susceptibility, but no doubt not all of them. | According to his obituary, Rose served in the Army for nine years, serving two tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.
“He enjoyed social media, online streaming, paranormal and his two cats Dale and Tucker. He was a fan of NASCAR, Dirt Track Racing, and Georgia Bulldogs Football,” it reads.
