After a family member died of Covid-19, a man took aim at Florida's top health official in sarcastic letter

At first glance, Charles Chamberlain's letter to the editor of the Tampa Bay Times seems to praise Florida's new surgeon general for his observation that the natural immunity that comes from being infected with Covid-19 provides "great protection" from the coronavirus.

"I am aware that he is correct because of a recent experience with a member of my family," Chamberlain writes of the remark Dr. Joseph Ladapo made last week. "He had a severe infection from COVID-19. He is past that now and is completely immune -- not only for COVID-19 but flu and other respiratory infections as well."

Then comes the tragic twist: "Of course, we are burying this family member next week."
