More people in the United States have died from COVID-19 over the past several years than from breast cancer and prostate cancer combined. Yet Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the head of Health and Human Services says Covid is nothing to worry about. He says that “Covid is gone“ and testifies untruthfully before Congress.

COVID-19 is still with us and still resulting in the deaths of Americans. I read that a report from the federal government’s Center for Disease Control and Prevention stated that the Covid vaccine has prevented hospitalizations and saved many lives. Yet the report was scrapped and not published. It sure looks like they don’t want Americans to know how effective the Covid vaccine is.

For me it is a hard and painful gut punch. I believe my brother who died of Covid before the vaccine was available would still be here if he could have had the vaccine. So would so many others. We deserve better leadership and so did Johnny and all the others we lost.
