Letters: Angry over COVID scofflaws

A Richmond News reader is upset that they have followed all the rules during the pandemic while others have ignored them

Dear Editor,

I am a single senior with an autoimmune disease who can’t be vaccinated.

Since COVID began, I have followed every rule, allowed no one in, hardly seen my family, masked, etc.

In two weeks, I won’t be able to go to a friend’s birthday lunch and it seems once again I will spend Christmas alone.

After listening to Dr. Henry’s last update, I am angry. My friend is angry because she can’t get an app to show she is vaccinated.

Those of us who have put our faith in the words “we will be in a better place by fall,” wonder why we sacrificed all the social pleasures in life, only to pay the price for those who did not.

Yes, I am very angry.
