“Think about more than yourself. Especially the young people. They might not get it or they might not feel it, but they could have the COVID and give it to somebody else.”

“I know how they feel. I didn’t want to get the shot. … Then I thought, what the heck, we all gonna die of something. Might as well get it.”
