MEMPHIS, Tennessee — In Tuesday’s Ransom Note: getting more of us fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
Our viewers know the science because we tell you almost every day, and you also know we’re a long way from herd immunity. Young people and male Republicans are among the most hesitant now. So it was good to see a new ad released today featuring a group of Republican doctors serving in Congress make the case. One of them is Dr. and Senator John Boozman of Arkansas who appears twice.
“Last year, the entire world was forced to face the COVID-19 pandemic head-on…” “If everyone does their part, in the coming weeks we will once again be able to worship together as a congregation,” Sen. Boozman said.
The ad combines scientific and medical advice with an appreciation for conservative values, a smart idea. Let's hope it works. Now to get our young people off the fence. Join the conversation by email (rransom@localmemphis.com), Facebook, or Twitter.
