Surgeon General Vivek Murthy revealed during the White House news briefing Thursday that he’s lost 10 family members to the coronavirus.
Murthy, who joined the briefing in an effort to urge Americans to get their shots amid lagging vaccination rates, was candid about his own experience during the pandemic. His family members who died were in both the U.S. and India. He said it was “painful” to know that “nearly every death we are seeing now” from Covid-19 in the U.S. could have been prevented with vaccines.
“I say that as someone who has lost 10 family members to Covid-19 and who wishes each and every day that they had had the opportunity to get vaccinated,” Murthy told reporters.

sorry for his loss but how old were they and did they have any health issues?
Lying liars lie.
Well, that’s just a shame.
We had a whole church that came down with it, and ALL of em survived. Yep...some got pretty sick. Some were pretty old, but ALL survived.
Sounds a lot like AOC’s abuela schtick.
My wife and I had it in January/February of 2020 before it even had a name and survived it just fine without doctor visits or pharmaceutical prescriptions, and I have the antibodies to prove it.
Right?! And how do you prove such a thing.
I guess they should have used ivermectin or one of the many other proven therapeutics.
“We’ve got to recognize sometimes the most trusted voices are not the ones that have the most followers on social media or the ones that have the most name recognition,”
It all boils down to trust; doesn’t it? But his argument smells of a tautology: “You can trust my experts, because they’re experts that you can trust.”
How about persuading us with a well reasoned argument, not coercing us or playing mind games? Perhaps you don’t haven’t really thought things through yourself? “Trust me” doesn’t cut it.
I know more families than that who’s members have died from having the vaccine.
My Body. My Choice.
I had it at the same time. I have COPD and I am still here. I already was taking breathing meds.
If true, I feel for him. But we need to dig deeper first.
How big is his family? How many live in India?
So...statistically...hes got what..a family that numbers like 38,000? Family in India...before they went to Ivermectin? This sounds a little more than out there to me. And why is he not mentioning Ivermectin anyway?
I wish they would feel te same intensity for all those whom the covid kill shot murdered.
They will suffer an immediate adverse reaction when they do.
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” ― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956
Wow! I don’t know anyone who has suffered from covid let alone died.
