Lee Health, which is one of Florida's largest public health systems, made the recommendation for people to get inoculated in a video posted to Twitter.
"What we're seeing here at Golisano Children's Hospital is a significant increase in the patients that are coming into our emergency room with COVID and the children that need to be admitted. This is a big change from what we've seen throughout the pandemic," Dr. Larry Antonucci, president and CEO of Lee Health said in the video.
Dr. Salomon Abitol, a pediatric hospitalist at the Golisano Children's Hospital, said among the seven of his patients that tested positive for COVID-19,"100 percent of those who are eligible to be vaccinated are not vaccinated and their caretakers are not vaccinated." At the end of the video, Lee Health staff urged residents to get inoculated and said,"Do it for yourself, our kids and the community."
