The 49-year-old man, who had been serving a sentence in Oakdale, La., for a drug conviction, died in hospital Saturday
The first federal inmate has died from the novel coronavirus, the Bureau of Prisons said Saturday, fueling concerns of an outbreak throughout the nation’s lockups.
The man, who had been serving a sentence for a drug conviction at a low-security facility in Oakdale, La., was transferred to a hospital on March 19 after complaining of a persistent cough, the bureau said. He tested positive for the virus and was put on a ventilator a day later when his symptoms worsened.
