An interview with the wife of a coronavirus victim brought CNN anchor Erin Burnett to tears Friday afternoon. Burnett spoke to Maura Lewinger, whose husband Joseph, age 42, died of coronavirus this week. He was a father of three and an assistant principal and basketball coach in Queens. Lewinger also pleaded with others to take the virus seriously and adhere to social distancing guideline: “I don’t want anyone else to experience this.”
"He was such a giver. And in every respect of the word. He just loved to make people happy... loved to make people feel loved."
