COVID-19 and Law Enforcement
Border Patrol Agent Alfredo Moises Ibarra died on September 27, 2021 of COVID-19 contracted in the line of duty. He was 33.
He is one of 885 officers honored here, and one of 17 at United States Department of Homeland Security - Customs and Border Protection - United States Border Patrol.
Beginning in early 2020, law enforcement officers across the country contracted COVID-19 in the course of their duties. While much of the nation sheltered at home, they kept answering calls, making arrests, transporting prisoners, and working face to face with the public. There was no distance to be had from the job.
Corrections officers were hit hardest. Confined facilities and large populations meant constant, close, unavoidable exposure.
Survivors
He is survived by his wife, three sons, and mother.
