ST. LOUIS PARK, Minn. (AP) — A suburban Minneapolis nursing home has paid the state’s largest fine for a coronavirus-related safety violation after an employee contracted COVID-19 and died.

State Labor Department inspection files show Sholom Community Alliance paid $27,100 in fines after David Kolleh died last May. The St. Louis Park nursing home was cited to failing to provide an adequate respiratory program for workers.

Minnesota Occupational Safety and Health Administration inspectors determined the facility’s failure “caused or contributed to” the death of Kolleh, a a manager in the memory care unit.

Sholom administrators dispute the conclusion that Kolleh caught the virus at work and said management did everything possible to provide adequate protective gear to its hundreds of workers in the early days of the pandemic, the Star Tribune reported.

Kolleh was among the first 5,000 people in Minnesota to be diagnosed with COVID-19 and among the first 750 to die from its complications.

The 61-year-old Eagan man was a Liberian immigrant, a husband and a father of 13 kids.
