On Saturday, Cal Fire San Diego through Operation Collaboration was able to get Kear vaccinated.
“They came in, gave me my shot, waited their 15 minutes, said goodbye and left, Kear said. It’s really a pleasure to be able to say, I have a poke in my arm.
Kear said she is one step closer to be able to hug her family members. Now my goal is to hug and I can’t wait, it’s going to be so exciting, she said laughing.
Kear s daughter reached out to NBC 7 after seeing an NBC story about another homebound senior getting his shot to share her mother’s concerns, hoping it will pave the way to a vaccination.

For the first time in more than two months, the number of active outbreaks in skilled nursing facilities has decreased instead of rising or remaining unchanged.
County health officials announced Wednesday that there are 60 active outbreaks in the region’s nursing homes, down from the 64 that were reported last week. Since the beginning of the pandemic, there have been 154 total outbreaks in skilled nursing facilities, which includes one newly announced this week.
Prior to this week, the last time that active outbreaks in nursing homes decreased was in mid-November, ahead of the surges caused by Thanksgiving and the winter holidays.
