More than 88,000 Americans have died and over 1.4 million have been infected with the novel coronavirus, which attacks the respiratory system and can trigger an extreme immune response in the most severe cases. People with underlying health conditions, from cancer to diabetes or asthma, are at higher risk of complications or death from COVID-19.
“I already felt kind of trapped — I can’t travel, I can’t do a lot of things, then all of a sudden the whole world can’t go to a party or go to a bar,” Sullivan said. “All of a sudden I was sitting there alone,” she said. “I did still wear a red dress and lipstick - I wanted to feel my greatest.”
