Fauci told CNN’s Sanjay Gupta: “The answer is yes, but one in particular, my youngest daughter’s boyfriend’s brother is a 32-year-old young man, athletic, healthy, who got Covid-19 and had one of the unusual complications of cardiomyopathy with an arrhythmia and died.
“So there you have a 32-year-old young man, otherwise healthy actually, quite athletic and strong, who died.”
The father of three young woman – Jennifer 34, Megan, 31, and Alison, 28 – said the unexpected death “really saddened his daughter greatly.”
Alison is a Stanford University graduate and Fauci’s youngest daughter.
The 79-year-old doctor, who is married to Dr Christine Grady, was interviewed during the ‘COVID-19: Chasing Science to Save Lives’ event.

Fauci’s hour-long interview was hosted by the Harvard T.H. Chan school of Public Health.
Despite Alison’s boyfriend’s brothers death, the infectious disease expert also reminded listeners that Covid-19 is not normally deadly for people of young ages.
However, the virus does come with uncertainty for all ages and long-lasting issues for those who contract the disease.
Fauci explained: “You don’t want to overwhelm the general public, but you want them to at least understand that you’re dealing with real suffering and real disease and real loss in the form of death of loved ones.
“There has to be motivation enough for at least most of the people to adhere to the public health issues and public health recommendations that we make.”
