Brooks just got really really unlucky, had a sudden blood clot in his throat, and it killed him. While I know that COVID-19 deaths are sometimes due to blood clots, it's not reported that he was COVID-19 positive.
Anyway, I didn't agree with the guy's politics at all, but it's sad when someone that young gets struck down through no fault of their own.
