(CNN)The week before classes begin, four educators in Broward County, Florida, have died within 24 hours of each other from Covid-19 related complications, local education officials said.

"Within a 24-hour span, we had an assistant teacher pass away, a teacher at her school pass away, an elementary teacher pass away and another teacher at a high school," Anna Fusco, president of the Broward Teachers Union, told CNN affiliate WFOR.
Broward County School Board Chair Rosalind Osgood was aware of several teachers' deaths, telling CNN on Friday: "We got information on Tuesday that was reported to us. I know of three of those teachers that passed away from Covid in Broward County."
      At least three of the educators were unvaccinated, Fusco told WFOR. The vaccination status of the fourth wasn't immediately known.
