Dear Editor
All signs are pointing to a winter surge of COVID infections this winter, yet less than 4% of the population - far less in Iowa - are up to date with their booster shots. This will potentially lead to thousands of needless deaths across the country in the next few months. 
In Iowa, this highly preventable illness has killed more people in 2022 than it did by this time in 2021, thanks to COVID-Kim Reynolds and her policy of doing nothing through denial. 

It's clear that there is no longer any reason to die from COVID other than people just choosing to not protect themselves and their loved ones. 
See your doctor. Science really is real. Get your booster. 
And for those who might be inclined to advise me of being political about it, let me just say that there is no place hot enough in hell for Joe Biden when he says the pandemic is over. It is not, and certainly not in Iowa.
