Louisiana Congresswoman Julia Letlow's husband, Luke, had just been elected to Congress when he got the coronavirus. The two were anxiously awaiting an opportunity to receive a COVID-19 vaccine.
"He and I had prayed for weeks prior about the possibility of the vaccine, and we were so excited that it was coming out and that it was going to be widely available. And he missed it by two weeks," Julia told CBS News' David Begnaud. He isolated upstairs in their home while she stayed downstairs with their young children. Then, despite having no pre-existing conditions, Luke's health took a turn for the worse.More Related News
