COVID victim's survivor says says niece's death changed his mind about vaccination

The price of NOT getting the COVID-19 shot can literally be death.

Todd Markovitch's niece, Melissa Osborne, was a former teacher and counseler in Neosho.

She entered Freeman hospital on July 5th and died last Wednesday.

Markovitch says her death has changed his view of the COVID-19 shot.

"I was reluctant on getting the shot," Markovitch admits.

"Some people people feel like they are invincible, I guess you would say. This hit close to home and this is what changed my mind. I guess it was reality thinking that I was not invincible."

Markovitch works at Freeman Hospital. He says Osborne did not suffer from any outstanding health problem.
