"It Took Her So Fast’: 4-Year-Old Texas Preschooler Dies of COVID Within Hours of First Symptoms
twitter.com/thedailybeast/status/1436...“Kali was perfectly fine, and then she was gone,” her mother said.
The preschooler at Bacliff’s Kenneth E. Little Elementary School had enjoyed a pleasant evening with her family less than 12 hours before becoming the youngest child to die of the virus in Galveston County.
Kali had just started preschool last month—and she loved it, telling her mother that she “can’t wait to go to school.”
The rambunctious 4-year-old passed away just one day after her mother, brother, and 5-month-old sister learned they were infected. The family is currently quarantined at home.
The Galveston County Health Department confirmed that a young girl died of COVID-19 died on Tuesday morning, calling it “the first in someone 10 and younger” in the county.
Kali’s tragic death comes amid a massive surge of the delta variant, which has plagued young children at rates far higher than expected.
According to the Texas Department of State Health Services, as of Sep. 10, at least 2,384 children have contracted COVID-19 in the state.
