'Tell all of our family to get vaccinated': COVID kills 6 members of Florida family in 3 weeks Lisa Wilson went door to door for months, trying to convince people to get the COVID vaccine. But despite her insistence, some members of her own family ignored her. Wilson said they undoubtedly were influenced by false reports on social media or from people who convinced them that the vaccine was developed too quickly and it wasn’t safe. In the last three weeks, six of her family members died from complications of COVID-19. The last time she talked to her uncle during a Facetime chat from his hospital bed, he told her he wished he’d followed her advice. “Tell all of our family to get vaccinated. It’s horrible. It hurts,” she said he cried, as he gasped for air. But, as family members gathered for yet another funeral, Wilson said her message is finally being heard. She said about 10 family members have recently gotten vaccinated.
