“Through the beginning of Covid-19 my father was unable to work due to the shutdown of many jobs and without him working we struggled to pay bills and even buy food. It was a very stressful situation for my family and we tried our best to maintain happy even through this tough time. Being vaccinated has not only helped me in order to stay safe but also allows me to protect others and help spread covid-19. With my family now vaccinated my dad is allowed to go back to work and we start to build our life again with a stable income of money.”
-Astrid Vidal, BCC Student
“Being vaccinated has helped me by reducing the risk of catching covid-19, being able to protect the people in my household who are vulnerable to virus as well and being able to go outside to enjoy the places I missed out last year.”
-Marlene Rodriguez, BCC Student
“I lost my aunt from Covid. I spent way too much time away from my family and friends. It [being vaccinated] brought my family together and it makes me feel more confident in a crowd of people.”
-Dolores Harshaw, Student Accessibility Services Staff Assistant
“It (Covid) has taken a toll on all of us especially because we have to be extremely cautious when it comes to my little sister since she hasn’t been vaccinated. It helps (to) remind myself that it is important to be up-to-date with your vaccination.”
-Jairo Lopez Hernandez, BCC Student
