With headlines like, “Hospitals set record high COVID-19 cases” and “801 new cases in one day” and “11 deaths in one day,” don’t you think it’s time our elected officials showed some leadership and started pressuring all eligible Alaskans to get vaccinated? Or are they waiting for some animal de-worming medicine to come flying out of the sky like Superman to save us from the pandemic? Just asking.
