Anti-Vaxxer Turns Vaccine Advocate After Husband Dies From COVID-19

Christina Lowe, 32, lost the love of her life and father to her children to COVID-19 less than a week ago.

It’s a death she now believes was preventable.

"I just always thought it’s never going to happen to us,” Lowe said. “It can’t happen to us. We’re young, we’re healthy. And then it did happen to us, and then you start playing the regret game."

Lowe and her husband Mikel were both adamantly against the COVID vaccine -- that is, until he lay dying in a hospital bed.

And their kids are probably too young to get vaccinated.

I can't understand why so many fools deny medical and scientific facts until they lose someone they love.

The wild strain just killed a bunch of seniors, so what we worry? Vascular systems fault don’t always give you a bunch of hints.
