Covid-19: Edwin Poots says unvaccinated need to catch themselves on
An unvaccinated former unionist councillor who became seriously ill with Covid-19 feared his mother would die from the virus she got from him.Within a week 19 family members had the virus, including his grandparents and six-year-old daughter.the Belfast Telegraph reported"It was without a doubt that it was me who gave it to her," the former Traditional Unionist Voice councillor told BBC Radio Ulster's The Nolan Show.
"Plus you're dealing with your own Covid as well, so all that stress and strain and trying to survive through all that - it's a horrible place to be."Mr Girvin said while he was never anti-vaccine and had initially supported lockdowns, he began to have questions about them."I was sort of a person who was in between it and questioning both sides, I wouldn't have been on one side or the other.
He said he would not wish Covid on his worst enemies and added that if his story helps save a life "I'll take the hate that goes along with that". "It's something that's been worked out by hundreds of different scientists from different institutions across the world and we need the vaccination to be rolled out to as many as possible," Mr Poots added.
He said officials had noticed a challenge in "getting rural people vaccinated because we know of the time pressures and constraints they are under".
