COVID cases in America are rising. They are rising in almost 25 States. Texas happens to be one of the States with the largest number of COVID cases. The United States has over 31 million cases and, of course, over 600,000 who have died. Hospitals today in certain areas are full, and the plague or the impact, tragically, on those who are unvaccinated. But the story goes on. As we begin to enter school, children under 12 cannot be vaccinated, even though research is going on. Here is my plea: To those in the 18th Congressional District, in Houston, Texas, in Harris County, in Texas, and in the Nation, the unvaccinated should get vaccinated. The surge is creating a rise in the pandemic again. If we are to get back to normal, find someone that you agree with that comforts you--your faith leader, your best friend--and talk about the importance of getting vaccinated. People are dying. Children will become infected and/or carriers when they go back to school. Everyone in school should be vaccinated. Yes, in the schools today, going back, you must be masked. You should wear a mask, and wear a mask inside, even if you are vaccinated. We are trying to save lives. Get vaccinated. It will save lives. ____________________
