New York City police lost its first detective to CCP virus, marking the third NYPD death to the disease that has afflicted the department.
The Epoch Times refers to the novel coronavirus, which causes the disease COVID-19, as the CCP virus because the Chinese Communist Party’s coverup and mismanagement allowed the virus to spread throughout China and create a global pandemic.
Detective Cedric Dickson, a 23-year veteran, worked in the 32nd Precinct in Harlem, NYPD Commissioner Dermot Shea said.“May we never forget the sacrifice of those workers who put themselves in harm’s way to keep you and your family safe,” the police chief said.
