[NFBMT] NBC article on inaccessible covid vaccine sites

[Laurie]

Hi there all:  

This is Laurie, wife of Robert Jaquiss. I am proud of Robert.  Not many people want to be a National story of NOT being able to do something. He put a lot of time in with Haley Messenger and he put time into the research and material he sent to her. 

So I am proud of Robert. 

Laurie
