Yay We Got Vaccinated!

Feb 4, 2021Moments

So so so grateful for our Department of Health for rolling out the vaccines so quickly, smoothly, and efficiently, and for American Samoa remaining COVID free still! We’re truly so blessed. Ian and I got our second dose of the Moderna vaccine. My arm’s a little heavy and sore, but I’m feeling light and full of gratitude. I hope that all my friends and family can get vaccinated soon too. I know off-island, many people are struggling to survive this pandemic, and vaccine rollouts may be slow in some places, but keeping my fingers crossed and praying we can get through this in time!
