CNN Nick Cordero, a Broadway actor who had admirers across the world rallying for his recovery, has died after a battle with COVID-19 according to his wife, Amanda Kloots.
He was 41.
"God has another angel in heaven now," Kloots posted on her official Instagram account Sunday night. "My darling husband passed away this morning. He was surrounded in love by his family, singing and praying as he gently left this earth."
Kloots has been regularly updating her social media accounts with news of her husband's ups and downs as he battled the virus and complications, including an amputated leg and potentially needing a double lung transplant. She said Cordero battled the disease for 95 days.
She shared on social media that Cordero spent some time on a ventilator, suffered multiple COVID-19 complications, including mini-strokes, blood clots, sepsis, and a tracheostomy. In April had to have his leg amputated. He had been on a ventilator and unconscious, and his lungs were so heavily damaged that a double lung transplant was being explored.

Hospitals are NOT always clean. I went in for an appendectomy and came out with a MRSS infection on my nasal septum.
That's my reaction too. Yes, COVID-19 affects some people more seriously than others, and some of the complications are severe. Based on the information that has been made public, however, this case seems to be a real outlier. Hospitals are dangerous places because there are too many sick people around. And intensive medical interventions can have side effects that go south in a big way. This case sounds like a cascade of unlucky chances.
As well you should!!!
Blood clots cut off circulation to various areas and the tissue dies. Typically seen first in toes and working up from there. The COVID toes are similar to what you see in uncontrolled diabetics.
Stop with the fear mongering.
Yes you can catch this and die, you can be perfectly healthy and young and catch this and die, just like any other diseas that exists, but the odds are much much higher you wont. In fact most people even if exposed will not contract the disease, yes even the elderly, and those that do, odds are you will not have a serious case, yes even in the elderly.
Yes the odds are higher you will have a more serious case the older you get, but the odds are still much more likely you wont in alll ages.

People die, they die every day of all sorts of things, there is only way out of this life.
People are free to do whatever they desire to protect themselves, but this nonsensical fear mongering, has got to end.
Fear is NOT a virtue.
Something I don't see to much in the media is the reliability of the test strips, once in two blue moons you might see something about the reliability of the test strips they use. In the beginning of this plandemic there was a few news articles out there that mentioned they were working on making the test strips more reliable, implying they were not reliable and they were getting to many false negatives or to many false positives. Back in March about the same time this guy starting having problems I starting running a fever of around 104 degrees + for several days etc. I went and got tested and it showed up neg, well I believed I got it and went to be tested a VA hospital and it came back negative. I believe the tests were not reliable enough or sensitive enough to show the positive, or my nose was so stuffed up enough that all they got was snot on the test strip, or snot washed the virus off the test strip as it was pulled out of the nose etc. which is a issue I have with the way the tests are done in the United States I think they should stop doing it up the nose and start doing it on the back of throat like the rest of the world is doing it. Makes you wonder why the swap up the nose was decided in the United States and not the back of the throat. There are many issues I have with how things are done in the United States are how things are done in the rest of the world I have but hey I don't want to spend my life time making mole hills into mountains etc.
I do not think this is the same death rate as the flu. A few times worse it seems. The flu kills very few people a year. The CDC just lies about the flu deaths. They lump in ordinary pneumonia cases with flu.
And I know 2 personally who have died from this thing. Neither were in a nursing home. One had no comorbidities. The other did.
She said, "I hate lying to my patients telling them they will get better when most will die."
I hope you didn't get a flu vaccine last few years since this tends to hit those who get one annually - or any sort of issue you don't know you have, like undiagnosed diabetes or high blood pressure.
I will be cautious and look a fool than face my Lord and Savior and have him ask why I was a dumbass in the face of plague and pestilence.
im not a nurse. is the nurse you know the one all over you tube?
A 100 bed ICU. I would like to know where that is.
185 children! (And that didn't make any headlines.)
After I read that 185 young actors and professional athletes in the US have died from COVID-19, I might consider panicking. Until then, I won't.
We don't know if there were or were not any underlying risk factors in this case. HIV is not the only type of immunodeficiency. There are others. Some immunodeficiencies are congenital. Some are acquired. We don't know in this case.
We DO know that he contracted the disease early on and that doctors and hospitals are getting better and better at treating it.
Just might be how he had a weak immune system.
Maybe if they had prescribed hydroxychloroquine early on, there would have been fewer deaths.
Rolled my eyes at that statement, too.
Surprised she didn't say somewhere a bell rang.
I have noticed the HIV or cancer treatments as being part of a number of younger COVID-19 deaths. Although Herman Cain seems to be handling things well considering he got chemotherapy for pretty bad cancer not so long ago. Maybe Cain got HCQ?
Lovely family.
RIP.
Cower at home!
Except for keeping a distance from sick looking or acting people (which i have always done)i will take my chances.
I suspect actors, and even performers, are in a higher risk group?
From what we often learn about many of their lifestyles or the people they associate with... Liberals, who often are hypocrites ( do as i say not as i do) i would guess are generally higher risk. They have multiple partners..share risky drugs and the like.
I would definitely keep 6 feet from a Billybob Clinton or a Kimmy Jimal.
That should be Biden’s campaign slogan. That or, Live In Fear!
