More than 125 Covid-19 cases tied to South Texas church camp, pastor says
This is depressing and unnecessary if you think about it. In the US I believe that anyone over the age of 12 can get a vaccination shot. But, here in the US we've got a major anti-vax movement, mostly amongst Republicans, that is keeping vaccination levels well below the needed 75% to achieve herd immunity.
Thanks Donald Trump and our patriotic and ignorant Republicans. Or is it stupid Republicans?
Either way, all the people who refuse to get vaccinated will be virus factories that will allow the virus to mutate into something even more transmissable and deadly.
Here's some of the juicy quotes:
More than 125 campers and adults who attended a summer camp run by a South Texas church have tested positive for coronavirus, according to a statement from Clear Creek Community Church Lead Pastor Bruce Wesley.
The outbreak stems from a late June Student Ministry Camp for sixth through 12th graders that was attended by over 400 people, he said.
"Unfortunately, upon return from camp, 125+ campers and adults reported to us that they tested positive for COVID-19. Additionally, hundreds more were exposed to COVID-19 at camp," Wesley said.
"And hundreds of others were likely exposed when infected people returned home from camp."
"This is a reminder that COVID-19 is still here, and we have to take precautions," Dr. Philip Keiser, Galveston County Local Health Authority, said in the county statement.
