COVID-19 vaccine rollout continues to reach more of the population, but experts say they should wait a little while longer.Susan Brandt and her husband Gilbert haven’t been able to give their six grandchildren a hug in a year.
The 80-year-old couple still won’t be able to, even after they get their first dose of the vaccine Thursday night.“I’m sure we thought about it (the chance to give hugs), yes, but we realized very quickly that wasn’t the case,” Susan Brandt said.Although the couple has been able to see their grandchildren from a distance, giving them a hug is what they’re looking forward to most.“It’s something that I have sorely missed,” Brandt said.
