Whatcom state Sen. Doug Ericksen MIA

No information has been available for three weeks about the location or condition of Republican state Sen. Doug Ericksen of Ferndale, who was reportedly being treated for COVID-19 at a Florida hospital after testing positive for the virus in El Salvador.

Calls to Ericksen have not been returned recently, leading to public speculation about his condition. Several of Ericksen’s constituents have written The Bellingham Herald, wondering why there has been no updated information.

Well-wishers have also sent messages to his public Facebook page, which has not been updated recently.

Ericksen’s legislative staff members have told The Bellingham Herald that they can’t comment.

Starting this mess in El Salvador may not have been a good idea.

Oh wait, maybe he should have got the shot.

Because we have a nation comprised of 45% voting morons, unvaxed, we'll be getting faster, better vaccines - requiring shots 1 or 2x a year. OK. But in 5 years, let see how many of these anti-vax crusader's still live, or believe.

with a time/date deadline.
That should elicit a response from his staff.

No family? No comment from relatives?

He was written up on sorryantivaxxers.com a few weeks ago.
