A student who was on spring break has taken to social media to apologize for comments he made that many felt were making light of COVID-19.

Brady Sluder, based out of Ohio, posted a statement on Instagram page after going viral in Florida, where he was one of many on vacation and partying, despite the growing spread of the virus.

His initial statement would lead to intense backlash up until now.
