Kayla Braxton not pleased with fans making Covid-19 jokes on Twitter

Kayla Braxton, who is a WWE interviewer and in-ring announcer, contracted Covid-19 twice in the past year. She first tested positive for the virus in March.

Then, she tested positive again in June, after which she tweeted to spread awareness about the fact that people can get it twice.

Was keeping it quiet but since everyone else is sharing, I feel like it is my responsibility to share this PSA: YOU CAN GET COVID-19 MORE THAN ONCE! I had it back in early March and then thought I was invincible after I recovered. Not true. Dont be dumb like me.

Braxton took to Twitter on Monday to reveal her frustration with online trolls that make fun of the virus. She revealed that she got a call at work to tell her that she lost someone close due to Covid-19.

The virus halted the entire globe when it first made it’s appearance around the start of 2020. WWE, like any other business, too felt the financial strain of the pandemic, but continued to soldier on without fans in the arena.

This has truly been a tough time for everyone around the globe, even more so for people have lost their loved ones due to the virus.

It is, thus, understandable why Braxton lost her cool when she saw people joking about her getting the disease. She lashed out at them on Twitter and put out this following message:

“While I was at work tonight, I got a call that someone very close to me died of covid. And as I logged on to this platform tonight, I noticed multiple disgusting tweets tagging me to make jokes about me when I had the virus early this year. FU*K you.”
