A teenage city council member in Alabama who had voted to end a mask mandate is encouraging residents to get vaccinated after he contracted Covid-19.
Hunter Pepper, 19, who is unvaccinated, said he's encouraging vaccinations. "This is a virus that is tearing down everybody," he said.
“I am going to get the vaccine after I’m cleared of the virus,” Hunter Pepper, 19, said Friday. “Let’s stop the spread. Let’s do what we can to do our part. I encourage people to get vaccinated. This is a virus that is tearing down everybody.” The Decatur city councilman said he received two positive Covid-19 tests Wednesday and has dealt with uncomfortable symptoms, including labored breathing, fever, headaches, vomiting and a raspy cough. He said his condition was improving and he was quarantining at home.
