reporter: well, doctors really hope so. the patients who have experienced this, it is certainly impacting them. we met one man, his name a lonzo comber, he s just 40 years old. he had been eligible to get vaccinated for covid-19, get a covid-19 vaccine months before he contracted covid-19. but he said he didn t do it when he was eligible because he didn t really feel like he needed it. he also had some concerns that he felt like the vaccines were just too new. but then he contracted covid-19 and spent nearly two months at this hospital, weeks in the icu, intubated on a ventilator. his family was told that they should start making funeral preparations. now he is trying to tell anyone who will listen that they should get vaccinated, because there is not a day that goes by that he doesn t wish he had gotten vaccinated when he had the chance. listen to what he told us and his message to other people. i would tell them go ahead
