What is my age? What is my status? Do I have people at home who are vulnerable that if I bring the virus home there may be a problem?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re not, to get boosted if you\u2019re eligible to be boosted,\u201d he added. \u201cIf you\u2019re in the certain group like the CDC\u2019s recent determination about people 50 and older, and individuals with underlying conditions, get that fourth boost, which, by the way, we really need to concentrate a lot more on that, about getting new tests, getting drugs, getting vaccines which I hope the Congress comes through and gives us the resources so that as we get into what might be another surge that we\u2019re prepared with the \u2014 all of the tools that we need to address it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies for breaking news, investigative reporting, sports, podcasts, in-depth analysis, books, and entertainment for a reason: because we believe in what we do.
