Coronavirus Kills 4 Members of New Jersey Christian Family

Share:

While the COVID-19 virus continues to claim many victims across the United States, one churchgoing New Jersey family has been left in tatters after losing four loved ones in the space of a week.

On Wednesday night, 73-year-old Grace Fusco died from the illness just hours after her son, Carmine, succumbed to the same fate. Five days prior, Fusco’s daughter Rita Fusco-Jackson had perished after contracting the disease. Then, on Thursday, yet more devastation—another of Grace’s children, Vincent Fusco, fell victim to the virus.

According to the family’s lawyer, three more children have been hospitalized and one remains in critical condition. It is an unprecedented single-family outbreak that has resulted in 20 relatives being confined to self-isolation.
