An unvaccinated Virginia man who thought he was “invincible” is begging Americans to get their COVID-19 shots after he was hospitalized with the virus. Travis Campbell, 43, was admitted to a hospital over a week ago and has been posting videos from his ICU bed. His wife and two children have also fallen sick with the coronavirus. Campbell wrote in one post: “I have never been this sick in my life!! My whole family has COVID, I truly regret not getting the vaccine... I’m over the stupid conspiracies, it’s time to be rational and protective. It’s not worth being stubborn like I did.” His wife, Kellie Campbell, told NBC News: “We just thought we were invincible and we weren’t going to get it... He just doesn’t want anyone to have to endure the pain that he has, and if a vaccine will help them, that’s what they need to do.” Campbell posted a video from pulmonary ICU on Tuesday night, saying he fears that he will have to go on a ventilator, and that his mind has started to turn to plans for his own funeral.
