Doug Ericksen, a Washington state senator, died Friday after a long battle with COVID-19. However, the 52-year-old Republican politician was fiercely against health measures in his state.
Indeed, the one who represented the 42nd district since 2011 had repeatedly called for the resignation of the governor of the state, Jay Inslee.
On November 1, Doug Ericksen asserted that Washington state was the national leader in authoritarian government.
His last official action as a state senator was to oppose compulsory vaccination in the state.
About a month ago, the senator confirmed to a local radio station that he was in El Salvador, where he had tested positive for COVID-19. He had to be hospitalized there and was unable to return to the United States. He wanted to obtain monoclonal antibodies, but this type of treatment was not available in El Salvador.
