Erica McAdoo, a Senior Detention Officer with the Los Angeles Police Department, died from complications of COVID-19 on July 3, 2020.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

LAPD officials have not confirmed thus far whether or not Officer McAdoo acquired the virus on the job.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Another 287 LAPD employees are now quarantined at home after having been exposed to the novel coronavirus, according to the department’s tweet.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

On Facebook, Jerome Hall, of the Fort Worth Black Law Enforcement Officers Association, wrote that Erica McAddo’s mother, Donna Royston, reported that even though her daughter had been “cured” of the COVID-19 virus, yet “she remained ill for months,” with damage to heart and kidneys.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

WLA has not yet been able to confirm the above statement, but the matter of serious post-COVID organ damage, specifically, to the lungs, heart, and\/or kidneys, has been recently reported with greater frequency, as in this July 4, story by Ed Yong in the Atlantic.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Also, on May 20, more than 40 days before she died, LAPD CSD posted on Instagram that, Officer McAdoo, from Metropolitan Jail Section, “is fighting for her life with Covid-19,” suggesting that the fight was a long and hard one.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
