The restaurant is now part of his legacy. At Tabla, a broad, sweeping wooden staircase welcomed diners to a space that was raucous with noise and fragrant with dishes like his take on a clam pizza, or halibut with watermelon curry. Cardoz, born in in Mumbai, India, trained partially in Switzerland before landing in the U.
After Tabla, he worked at two more restaurants in New York before launching the cozy, hip downtown spot Paowalla later reimagined and renamed Bombay Bread Bar and two destinations in Mumbai. His New York locations are now closed.
He became a food celebrity after winning Top Chef Masters in , where his Indonesian-style short ribs won the day, and also wrote a popular cookbook in , Flavorwalla , filled with spiced-up riffs on family-friendly classics like chicken soup. His latest venture, the imaginative Bombay Sweet Shop, launched this spring. He leaves behind his wife, two sons, five siblings and a trailblazing culinary legacy. And while this stereotype might be true in rare cases, for the most part, the traveling pack of sports journalists who type the words and shoot the pictures at arenas and stadiums across the country are passionate professionals who work odd, long nighttime and weekend hours far away from their families.
And in those moments after the games, before they have to head back to another faceless hotel room to rest up for the next event, sports journalists often only have each other to lean on. The pack forms a family. So the April 12 death of New York Post sports photographer Anthony Causi, at age 48 after battling Covid, was a particular gut punch to that Big Apple family, which is competitive in the photo pits and press boxes, but particularly tight off the field.
Causi was a favorite son. He was the person who, before or after a game, would drop his 50 pounds of photography equipment and insist on snapping a group shot of his colleagues and their families, if they happened to be at the field.
But it really was. Causi, who leaves behind his wife and two children, won the respect of his colleagues and the athletes he covered because he combined kindness with sheer talent. Among his colleagues, one moment stands out: at spring training in , New York Mets outfielder Yoenis Cespedes took to arriving at the Florida facility in a variety of tricked-out cars.
A Polaris Slinghot one morning, a Black Lamborghini the next. The photogs took to staking out the Mets parking lot each day, waiting to snap a shot of the next vehicle. Cespedes said yes. So he and Causi went streaking out of the parking lot at about 60 miles per hour. Causi got the shot. He always did. House of Representatives in January.
The man known more formally as Avraham Hakohen Cohn died on March 24 after being hospitalized with the coronavirus in his adopted New York City home. Born in in what is now Slovakia, Cohn was just a teenager when his family slipped him across the border into Hungary as those around him were being forced into concentration camps. Returning home after Hungary started mass deportation, he successfully worked to help Jewish refugees evade the Nazis, supplying them with housing and false papers, according to the Jewish Partisan Educational Foundation.
After the war, he moved to the United States and became a successful real estate developer on Staten Island. Cohn was also a passionate mohel, a figure who performs ritual circumcisions; he performed some 35, and did so for free. He also trained more than other mohels, on the condition that they also refuse payment. Max Rose, tweeted upon the news of his death. Sounds dry—as long as you overlook the fact that its system-building dynamics explain, well, everything in the world, including life itself.
He studied knot theory, tangle theory, surreal numbers and lattices in higher dimensions. Conway might actually be more notably remembered for co-developing the Free Will Theorem of quantum mechanics in , positing nothing short of the idea that if humans have the freedom to choose which experiments they will run with elementary particles, then the elementary particles have similar free will, able to choose their rate and direction of spin.
Doubt that? OK, prove he was wrong. His wife had recently given birth to their first child, and the young family had moved west after Cordero accepted a role in a play in Los Angeles.
The pandemic changed all that. Cordero, who according to his wife had no preexisting health conditions, contracted the disease in March. He spent the rest of his life in the hospital, facing secondary lung infections, mini-strokes and an amputation—and, as his wife Amanda Kloots shared his daily progress on social media, became one recognizable face of a global crisis.
Friends remembered Cordero, who was nominated for a Tony Award in for his portrayal of a tap dancing gangster in Bullets over Broadway , as a vivacious performer, and family recalled a devoted father and husband.
But as states press forward with reopening, close friend Zach Braff also had a message for the public. Wrapped in the arms of his husband and encircled by about 20 hospital staff members wearing personal protective equipment, Dr. Costa, the Division Chief of Critical Care at Mercy Medical Center in Baltimore, worked more than two decades at the hospital, specializing in critical and pulmonary care.
Fluent in both German and Italian, he spent much of the last three years engrossed in Italian literature. Costa was also a pianist, and had recently learned to play the mandolin.
But more than anything, Costa loved being a doctor. Even Hart admitted his husband was a bit of a workaholic, always putting his patients and colleagues first until the very end. Hart told the Sun that his husband was the bravest man he ever knew. The day she heard about the Columbine mass shooting in , Julie Davis decided to become a teacher. Davis had been teaching third grade in person at Norwood Elementary School in North Carolina—one of her favorite activities in the world—until she got a headache on Sept.
Only ten days later, on Oct. In addition to her daughter, she is survived by her grandson, husband, son, sister, two brothers and parents. And Davis adored her students right back. AshLee DeMarinis loved to teach—and felt a special bond with the seventh- and eighth-grade special education students who needed her help the most.
DeMarinis was a little nervous about returning to John Evans Middle School in Potosi, Missouri, this fall to start her eleventh year teaching, Heissenbuttel says, but she planned on still teaching despite the potential risks associated with the pandemic. She died three weeks later at age DeMarinis touched many lives as an educator and will be missed dearly by our community.
Heissenbuttel says her sister helped her students and the community in ways large and small. James Catholic Church and she would also buy groceries for low-income families around town.
While she grew up in Queens, N. She also loved to travel. As one half of the open-hearted couple who famously welcomed a random teen into their Arizona home for Thanksgiving , Lonnie Dench was renowned for helping give rise to one of the most heartwarming holiday traditions known to the internet. On April 5, the husband of the grandma who went viral for accidentally inviting the teen to celebrate the holiday with her family in died from complications from the coronavirus.
Jamal Hinton , the now year-old who spent every Thanksgiving afterward with Lonnie and Wanda Dench since Wanda mistakenly sent him a text meant for her grandson four years ago, announced on Twitter on April 1 that Lonnie had passed away. People looked forward to their meaningful connection each year. Wanda is under a two-week quarantine, Hinton and his girlfriend, Mikaela Grubbs, said in a YouTube video.
Hinton also recently shared a brief video of Lonnie with Wanda, which demonstrated his fun and generous spirit. He was my hero. Through her painstaking translations, she brought examinations of Russian folk tales and Austrian psychoanalysis to France.
Now, her work is part of her legacy. Marguerite Derrida, a prominent French psychoanalyst and translator, reportedly died of the coronavirus on March 21 in a Parisian retirement home. She translated the books of Melanie Klein, an Austrian-British psychoanalyst studying children, as well as Russian authors like Vladimir Propp, a scholar focused on the structure of Russian folk tales—bringing their works to a wider audience. She also worked as a clinician after attending the Psychoanalytic Society of Paris.
From the beginning of her life, Ms. Derrida was surrounded by intellectuals. Born in Prague, her father, Gustave Aucouturier , served as editor-in-chief of Agence France-Presse, an international news agency.
Her brother, Michel Aucouturier , eventually became a renowned French expert in Slavic studies. It was Ms. Four years later, they married in a non-religious ceremony in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where Mr. Derrida was studying at Harvard University. In the late s, the couple moved to a modest home in the Parisian suburb Ris-Orangis where Ms. In the decades that followed, Mr.

Helen Etuk greeted nearly everyone she met with a smile. On track to graduate in , she planned on continuing to medical school to become a pediatrician. But Etuk never had the chance to reach those goals. Even to her last breath, she was always telling us to be strong, and just continue to love and believe in God.
But she developed a bad cough in October, Ayisire says, and returned home to Arlington, Texas, to be safe. Her condition soon worsened, and she lost her sense of taste and smell. She then became unable to walk down stairs without being carried. Etuk was hospitalized in early November, and never returned home. Etuk is survived by her mother, five brothers, and three sisters. Her family is raising money for a scholarship to UNT in her name, to honor her love of learning. Her mother also hopes to create a nonprofit to help support people suffering from lupus, Ayisire says.
Even when life was a challenge, Adeline Fagan chose to focus on the good things to happen each day. Although Adeline was endearingly uncoordinated, they would sing and dance together to Disney songs to blow off steam, Maureen says.
But their ritual ended for good on Sept. On July 8, Adeline came home from work feeling sick. By Aug. On the morning she died, her parents were there to hold her. Thirteen religious sisters from the same convent have died from the coronavirus , with twelve passing in the span of a month.
By the end of April, eleven other sisters had passed. A thirteenth sister, despite an initial recovery, passed away in June. The sisters, all of whom were longtime members of the convent, lived, prayed and worked together.
Prior to their retirements, the women had worked as school teachers, college professors and principals; librarians, nurses and organists. For many sisters, who normally pray alongside those who are dying, having to socially distance during a time of grief was difficult. Alan Finder wore many hats during his three decades at the New York Times. As both a reporter and editor, he covered New York City government, international news, sports, higher education, labor, transportation and much more.
But no matter the subject, Finder approached his stories with the same even-keeled work ethic and attention to detail. He challenged power structures and gave voice to the disenfranchised; he was beloved by colleagues and served as an essential mentor to several generations of budding journalists. He died at 72 on March 24 after battling coronavirus for several weeks.
Finder was born in in Brooklyn and started his career as a local cub reporter for the Bergen Record in Hackensack, N. After a four-year stint at Newsday he joined the Times in , where he distinguished himself for his diligent approach to covering highly technical and corruption-plagued realms like housing, labor and transportation.
Over the next decade-plus, Finder would prove his flexibility, serving as a sports editor, then an education reporter, then an editor on the international desk. He took many journalists under his wing, offering them invaluable advice or just an open ear. When Finder died he was still working editing shifts at the Times , but was spending more time with his wife Elaine, daughter Lauren, and son Jacob.
When Jet magazine asked the photographer Theodore Gaffney to travel with the Freedom Riders in to document their journey to Birmingham, he agreed without thinking twice.
Gaffney ended up with a front-row seat to one of the most significant events of 20th-century American history. The Freedom Riders, who traveled the American South to challenge the segregation of buses and terminals, revealed American injustice to the world, charted a course of nonviolent action that would lead to the Civil Rights Act of and galvanized a new generation of civil rights leaders.
Along the way, they were met by vicious mobs and eventually federal intervention. And Gaffney was there to capture it all. On Easter Sunday, the longtime photographer died at age 92 from the coronavirus.
Theodore Gaffney was born Nov. He was the descendant of slaves who worked on a plantation near Gaffney, S. After his service ended, he took classes at Catholic and Howard Universities and developed an interest in photography.
As a photographer, he spent much of his time photographing politicians and activists on Capitol Hill. In , he found himself the subject of news when pro-segregation Sen.
Five years later, when Gaffney was 33, Jet asked him to join the Freedom Riders. The rides would soon turn violent as mobs targeted the buses. Gaffney says his position made him especially vulnerable, since their attackers did not want their violence documented. At one point, white supremacists boarded the bus and began beating activists. Gaffney snapped two pictures and then slipped his camera back into his pocket. I was afraid I might not come back.
Gaffney made it out safely and resumed work on Capitol Hill. He was retired and living in Brazil when he met his wife in The pair was married two years later; they moved to the U.
Even in his last weeks, Santos-Gaffney says her husband retained his inquisitive spirit. After 44 years behind bars as a juvenile lifer, William Garrison was set to be released from the Macomb Correctional Facility in Michigan on May 6. But just three weeks short of that date, on April 13, he died of complications from the coronavirus. At 16, Garrison was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison without parole in He was recently resentenced, following a Supreme Court ruling that banned life-without-parole sentences for minors, and was offered parole in February.
However, he turned it down because he felt the court had done him an injustice with his original sentence, according to MDOC spokesperson Chris Gautz. MDOC spokesperson Chris Gautz says that Garrison had not reported any symptoms or illness he was tested for the coronavirus only after his death and that his cellmate has since tested negative.
Even as Rev. Can we pray today? Gibbs, an associate pastor at Resurrection Metropolitan Community Church in Houston, was an indispensable church leader, quick to provide members with prayers, homemade food, or her signature warm smile.
After her death , on July 10 at age 57, tributes to Gibbs poured in on a Facebook page dedicated to her memory. Over the course of nearly 40 years at the congregation, Gibbs became an invaluable pillar of the church, developing diversity and inclusion curriculums and helping to establish a gospel ensemble focusing on African American worship music.
On June 7, as the country erupted into protests over the deaths of Black Americans including Ahmaud Arbery and George Floyd , she delivered an impassioned final sermon , decrying the insidious fractures that plague the U. Gibbs challenged church members to confront inequality and injustice head on.
Gibbs is survived by her wife, two daughters, and her month-old grandson. Ever a meticulous planner, Gibbs left behind a detailed list of things that White should do in the event of her passing.
Sometimes a life ends on a little whiff of poetry. It was miraculous that she met her future husband literally in the playpen, when she was three and he was just 19 months old. Their parents were part of a local cards club. And it was miraculous too that Annie Glenn survived and thrived in a national spotlight for decade upon decade while suffering from a stutter so paralyzing that when she was a young woman, she would write down her destination and hand the paper to a bus driver rather than attempt to speak her stop.
Glenn eventually overcame the problem after undergoing intensive therapy in the s, and went on to campaign for her husband during his presidential run in She was honored with the Department of Defense Medal for Outstanding Public Service in , but more important was the annual award named for her by the National Association for Hearing and Speech Action, in It is a story often told—and a true one—that before John Glenn went off to war in , he told his then-new wife that he was just going down to the corner store for a pack of gum.
He would repeat that little ritual over the years before military missions, test-piloting flights and his two trips to space. Widowed for four long years after a marriage of more than seven decades, Annie has now, at last, joined John at their corner store. The compact Bronx wordsmith constructed his verses with a keen attention to cadence, puns, punchlines, assonances and homonyms; he was revered by many rappers and producers as one of the sharpest writers in the rap community.
After a decade-long career, Fred the Godson died on April 23 from complications of the coronavirus. Born Frederick Thomas in the South Bronx, Fred the Godson grew up in poverty, with a father who struggled with crack cocaine use. When he was a child, a fire in his apartment forced his family—which included his parents and five siblings—into a two-room shelter.
But as he progressed as a wordsmith, lacing his rhymes with metaphors and witty homonyms, he quickly realized his skill far outpaced that of many in the field. His first two mixtapes, Armageddon and City of God , became cult favorites in an era when mixtapes were still a dominant part of the hip-hop landscape. His verses were stuffed with double entendres and wordplay that made listeners rewind their tapes.
But in early April, he was taken to the hospital, where he died several weeks later. His numerous health isses, including kidney failure, high blood pressure and diabetes, put him at higher risk after contracting the coronavirus.
For his fifth birthday, little Raiden Gonzalez is wishing for Hot Wheels and dinosaurs. But more than that, he is wishing for his parents, who died less than four months apart of COVID earlier this year.
Adan Gonzalez died on June 26 after contracting the coronavirus while training for his new job as a truck driver. His wife, Mariah Gonzalez, reportedly did not contract the virus at that time, but began feeling ill a few months later. She died on Oct. She was a light to this world and that light will never dim whether she is here or not.
Salinas told the Express-News that Adan and Mariah met online and chatted for 10 months before meeting in person. They were always laughing, always in a happy mood. She said little Raiden is similarly loving, but is now attempting to make sense of the world as an orphan. Conjoined twins are a rare phenomenon, occurring in about 1 of every , births. Also rare are doctors who have the ability to navigate the daunting complexities of their condition.
James Goodrich, a pioneering neurosurgeon, was world-renowned for developing a method that could separate twins who were joined at the brain and skull. He shared his expertise in hundreds of cases and led teams through marathon surgeries that famously yielded independent lives. Goodrich died on March 30 due to complications from the coronavirus, according to the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Montefiore Medical Center in New York City, where he worked for more than 30 years.
In a statement , colleagues at the institution remembered the director of pediatric neurosurgery for his singular skills, but also for his humility. Philip O. The surgery lasted 27 hours.
Another case involved Carl and Clarence Aguirre, twins from the Philippines who were joined at the top of their heads. In , Goodrich led a team that performed several surgeries to separate the boys , who were then two years old.
Glenn, who died on May 9 at age 89 of coronavirus complications, was the spirit of the bar he opened in , tucked away just off Times Square. He was friends with Muhammad Ali, who would sometimes stop by the Times Square gym Glenn ran in the s and early s.
Stephen Gregory was breathing OK around 8 a. A few days earlier, Stephen had tested positive for the coronavirus. At some point that afternoon, his breathing stopped. Stephen Gregory—whose lanky moves propelled him to Best Dancer honors at the Park Gardens Rehabilitation and Nursing Center annual Academy Awards ceremony—was pronounced dead, after complications from the coronavirus. COVID has stolen an all-too broad swath of humanity.
This pandemic, however, has taken a particularly cruel toll on homes housing the sick, the old and infirm, the developmentally disabled. Those able to fight the coronavirus least. He existed in the shadows of society, largely forgotten by all except his immediate family and those who cared for him, daily. Stephen spent the majority of his adult life under state care. But at least Stephen had a family who cared for him, relatives he could entertain on Christmas.
Despite overseeing a facility overcome by fear of the coronavirus, and despite worrying about their own safety, his health care workers looked after him, until he took his final breath. For Dr.
Alyce Gullattee, a life in the medical field was a career choice that came early in life. She was one of 12 children and they were often sick, with siblings isolated to prevent germs from spreading. Frederick said in a statement honoring the year faculty member. Gullattee died April 30 after contracting the coronavirus and spending two months in the hospital. In , the same year she graduated from Howard University College of Medicine, she founded and was the first president of the Student National Medical Association, an organization that works to support medical students from underrepresented backgrounds.
While Dr. Gullattee entrenched herself fully within the D. Black community, where she was beloved, she was also lauded for her expertise in substance abuse within the Capitol. She was really impressed with that. Alice Guzman, who lived in San Antonio, passed away on July 9 after contracting the coronavirus.
She also spent time working as a home care worker, a role in which she cared for her mother. Guzman is survived by her husband of 31 years as well as two of three children from her first marriage. She also leaves behind step-children including twins Joaquin Castro, a U. She had an impressive collection of cookbooks, and she collected books and magazines as well. Jesse Guzman describes her as a giving person whose positive impact on others was repeatedly highlighted after her death.
I was really amazed. In a social media post announcing her death, Rep. Until recently, Ernesto was a much-loved and valued member of the sixth grade class who loved Fortnite, spending time with his friends and a good joke.
Several of his former teachers attended his funeral, standing far apart and wearing masks. He was the youngest person in Cook County, Illinois to die from the coronavirus at the time of his funeral. For years, Ernesto battled Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a rare genetic condition that primarily damages the nerves in the arms and legs.
He underwent several surgeries throughout his young life, starting at age 6. Through it all he was known for being the glue that kept his family close and for being a strong and positive light. In , Michael Halkias and his wife, Alice, purchased a once-opulent event space on the southern edge of Park Slope, Brooklyn that they would rename Grand Prospect Hall. However dilapidated it seemed, Halkias had a vision: He and Alice spent years renovating the concert hall and ballroom to bring back its former glory, adding their own extravagant touches.
Halkias, who spent decades making good on that promise, died on May 6 at the age of 82 from the coronavirus. Rest In Peace, Mr. The sociology professor at the City University of New York spent years of his life walking around his city, engaging with residents face-to-face and unearthing their local histories.
His quest to cover every single block of the city was documented in a series of acclaimed books, most notably The New York Nobody Knows: Walking 6, Miles in the City. He was in the midst of writing a study of Staten Island; his already completed study of Queens is slated for publication this fall.
Helmreich was born in in Zurich. His parents, Holocaust survivors, brought him to America a year later. Through these explorations, Helmreich developed a deep fascination with under-documented parts of the city. After attending Yeshiva University and obtaining a doctorate at Washington University, he became a sociology professor at City College—a position he would hold for over 40 years, exploring urban sociology, religion, gentrification and the lives of Holocaust survivors.
He was fearless in seeking out cloistered interview subjects—whether black power advocates, Orthodox Rabbis or a leader of Hamas—and delving deeply into their worlds. It was this inquisitive, relentless approach that led him to his most well-known project: a four-year stroll through New York that would cover 6, miles and wear out nine pairs of shoes. In his journey, he found vintage auto shops, delectable hole-in-the-wall pizza joints and fishing communities.
Helmreich was the author or editor of 18 books and a frequent guest on television and radio programs. Will the people in the gas stations be the same? Nelson Henry Jr. It could have been partly due to his time in the U. Dean describes his father as extremely organized, keeping old photos and documents in pristine condition for decades. So for Henry to be given a less-than-honorable discharge in , after more than two years of service, seemed confusing at best—and racist at worst.
Despite the injustice, Henry eventually earned a psychology degree from Temple University and went on to work in the Pennsylvania state employment office, after driving a taxi for many years.
Kristen says discharge upgrade cases are notoriously difficult to win, but despite the weak odds they went ahead with the formal process. The Army then delivered the news Henry patiently waited nearly 75 years to hear: honorably discharged. Those who knew 5-year-old Skylar Herbert the very best have described her as beautifully affectionate, always ready to give the things that are most precious. She is believed to be the youngest person in the state of Michigan to succumb to the disease.
Her mother has been a police officer in Detroit for 25 years, while her father, Ebbie Herbert, has worked as a firefighter for There are no words that can capture the loss of a child, the world suddenly devoid of their habits and aspirations, the devastation of the mementos they left behind. At age 5, Skylar liked shiny things and dressing up and had dreamed of becoming a pediatric dentist, according to reports. Many who knew the kindergartener described her as sparkling and vivacious. In the days following her death, there was an outpouring of empathy on social media for her family.

Edit Close. Welcome, Guest. The WHO estimates that worldwide, there are more than 25 million outpatient visits and two million hospitalizations each year due to rotavirus infections. Countries that have introduced the vaccine have reported sharp declines in rotavirus hospitalizations and deaths. The virus likely emerged in bats initially, then hopped into nocturnal mammals called civets before finally infecting humans, according to the Journal of Virology. After triggering an outbreak in China, SARS spread to 26 countries around the world, infecting more than people and killing more than over the course of several months, according to History.
The disease causes fever, chills and body aches, and often progresses to pneumonia, a severe condition in which the lungs become inflamed and fill with pus. SARS has an estimated mortality rate of 9. The virus may have originated in bats and passed through an intermediate animal before infecting people, according to Nature. The initial outbreak prompted an extensive quarantine of Wuhan and nearby cities, restrictions on travel to and from affected countries and a worldwide effort to develop diagnostics, treatments and vaccines.
Since its appearance, the virus has caused over five million deaths worldwide, according to Reuters. Common symptoms include fever, cough, loss of taste or smell and shortness of breath and more serious symptoms include breathing difficulties, chest pain and loss of mobility. On Aug. In December , this vaccine became the first to be approved after a large clinical trial, according to Nature. According to WHO , the disease infected camels before passing into humans and can trigger a fever, coughing and shortness of breath in infected people.
There is no vaccine available to prevent this disease, according to the NHS. The best way to reduce the chances of infection is to wash hands regularly, avoid contact with camels and not consume products containing raw animal milk.
Live Science. See all comments Don't said:. Meh said:. Comment on rabies fatality rate. Although all warm-blooded animals are thought to be susceptible to rabies, there are strains of the rabies virus multiple bat stains strains are maintained in particular reservoir host s , with some cross over especially in the US between raccoons and skunks.
Although a strain can cause rabies in other species, the virus usually dies out during serial passage in species to which it is not adapted, and non-carnivores cows, horses, deer, groundhogs, beavers AND CATS, like small rodents, are dead-end hosts. The CDC estimates in the US, 1 million dollars per potential life saved is spent by post-exposure prophylaxis in cases of exposure to animals other than bats, canines, fox, raccoon, skunks.
Hundreds of unvaccinated cats are infected with, and die or are euthanized of rabies each year -no way every human exposure to "the kitten in the park " is tracked down. Certainly, many farmers and ranchers are unknowingly exposed.
Yet almost all of the people diagnosed in the US yearly, knew they were bitten by a dog when outside the US or handled a bat. And there have been several incidences since , where people got rabies secondary to solid organ transplants. Species vary in susceptibility to various strains, humans are 'most' susceptible to canine rabies and, in the US, the silver-haired bat strain.
This is a solitary bat with infrequent human interaction, whereas we have much more exposure to big and little brown bats and Mexican free-tailed bats.
