Local priest admitted into the ICU due to coronavirus A priest serving at a Catholic church in the east valley has been admitted into the ICU after spending several days hospitalized with coronavirus. Father Francisco Valdovinos of Sanctuary of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Meccca has been in the hospital battling coronavirus since at least last week. Last week, we reached out to a local priest about his condition and who told News Channel 3 that Valdovinos told him he was doing better. However, on Sunday, the church has announced that Valdovinos' condition has since worsened. According to the church, Valdovinos is currently in critical condition. His condition is being monitored hourly.
