Texas Mom Regrets Going Unvaccinated After 4-Year-Old Daughter Dies of COVID
A mother from Texas said she regrets not getting vaccinated against COVID-19 after her 4-year-old daughter died from the virus just hours after first showing symptoms.
Karra Harwood told The Galveston County Daily News that she first tested positive for the virus on Monday. At home, she isolated herself from her family so they would not become infected.
On Tuesday at about 2 a.m., her daughter Kali had developed a fever, so she gave her some medicine to alleviate it, according to the Daily News. But by 7 a.m., her daughter died in her sleep.
Harwood described Kali as "beautiful," saying she hated bows and liked to play with worms. She had no autoimmune disorders that would have predisposed her to serious illness.
Harwood chose to not get vaccinated but now regrets that decision, she said.
"I was one of the people that was anti, I was against it," she said. "Now, I wish I never was."
Health officials told the Daily News that they do not believe Kali became infected at school, as contract tracing indicated that no one she was in close contact with had tested positive for the virus. Galveston County Local Health Authority Philip Keiser called the death a "tragedy."
Children younger than 12 do not qualify for COVID vaccines. Kali never tested positive and was not confirmed to have been infected until she was examined by the Galveston County Medical Examiner's Office, the paper reported.
Children rarely become seriously ill or die from COVID-19. But pediatric cases have increased in recent months as the Delta variant has become the dominant strain in the United States and millions of students have returned to schools. More than 250,000 children tested positive for the virus in the United States last week—the highest number since the start of the pandemic—according to the the American Academy of Pediatrics. Children represented 26.8 percent of weekly reported cases.
"At this time, it appears that severe illness due to COVID-19 is uncommon among children. However, there is an urgent need to collect more data on longer-term impacts of the pandemic on children, including ways the virus may harm the long-term physical health of infected children, as well as its emotional and mental health effects," the AAP said.
Data indicates that unvaccinated children are less likely to die than vaccinated adults from the virus, should they become infected.

Statesville Woman Regrets Not Getting Vaccinated For COVID While Pregnant
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — One week before Valerie Allen, 29, of Statesville was expected to give birth to her fourth child she contracted COVID-19 which led to a prolonged hospitalization.
Allen had her birth plan ready and expected to be induced, which is what happened with all three of her previous pregnancies, when just a week before the induction date she tested positive for COVID-19.
Allen’s husband and her children, ages 11, 7, and 1, and her parents all contracted coronavirus.
Allen says while her family had mild symptoms, hers were more concerning.
Although her birth plan was thrown out the window due to COVID precautions, Allen says all went well during the birth.
Staff at Iredell Memorial allowed Allen to bring her newborn, since she was breastfeeding, and her husband with her to the hospital while she was evaluated.
After being evaluated, health officials soon diagnosed Allen with COVID pneumonia in both lungs and admitted her to the Critical Care Unit.
For safety reasons, officials say her daughter was not allowed to come with her.
As an advocate for breastfeeding, Allen wanted to continue doing so for her newborn even as she layed in the hospital battling the deadly disease.
Allen’s oxygen she was on wasn’t enough, and her family and medical team were desperate for her to get better.
The medication her medical team was suggesting to help her get better would prevent her from being able to breastfeed since it would make the breastmilk unsafe.
Eighteen days after being admitted to the hospital, Allen was finally discharged and allowed to go home, with oxygen that she was only able to stop using just recently on September 6th.
Allen is still on a bunch of different medications, breathing treatments, and still suffers from fatigue.
She is also working on getting her physical strength back after being stuck in bed for so long.
After looking at x-rays of her lungs, Allen says she knows they look bad and it worries her for the future.
She says she knows they weren’t as careful as they could have been.
Allen says she herself was not vaccinated nor her children (since they were too young).
She now is waiting anxiously to get vaccinated after her physician clears her.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — One week before Valerie Allen, 29, of Statesville was expected to give birth to her fourth child she contracted COVID-19 which led to a prolonged hospitalization.
Allen was already a mother to three healthy, thriving children, and she and her husband were looking forward to completing their family with the last baby they planned to have.
Allen had her birth plan ready and expected to be induced, which is what happened with all three of her previous pregnancies, when just a week before the induction date she tested positive for COVID-19.
Allen’s husband and her children, ages 11, 7, and 1, and her parents all contracted coronavirus.
Allen says while her family had mild symptoms, hers were more concerning.
Allen says as soon as she started to feel unwell, she and her family were immediately tested for COVID-19.
Allen says her newborn daughter did not wait for her induction date, instead Allen went into labor on Sunday, August 8th, while still in isolation for COVID-19.
Although her birth plan was thrown out the window due to COVID precautions, Allen says all went well during the birth.
Allen was discharged from the hospital with her newborn after a few days, but says coming home was more difficult than she expected.
It wasn’t long after returning home from giving birth that Allen’s COVID symptoms starting getting worse.
Her husband insisted she return to the hospital not long after.
Staff at Iredell Memorial allowed Allen to bring her newborn, since she was breastfeeding, and her husband with her to the hospital while she was evaluated.
After being evaluated, health officials soon diagnosed Allen with COVID pneumonia in both lungs and admitted her to the Critical Care Unit.
For safety reasons, officials say her daughter was not allowed to come with her.
As an advocate for breastfeeding, Allen wanted to continue doing so for her newborn even as she layed in the hospital battling the deadly disease.
That didn’t last long though.
Allen’s oxygen she was on wasn’t enough, and her family and medical team were desperate for her to get better.
The medication her medical team was suggesting to help her get better would prevent her from being able to breastfeed since it would make the breastmilk unsafe.
Allen says it wasn’t until she got into an argument with a nurse that she was finally convinced to accept the recommended medication.
Allen says being in the CCU without her family was extremely difficult.
Allen began improving after about a week in the CCU, and was moved to a less critical unit of the hospital as she continued to recover.
Eighteen days after being admitted to the hospital, Allen was finally discharged and allowed to go home, with oxygen that she was only able to stop using just recently on September 6th.
Allen says in fact traumatizing is the word she would use to describe her entire ordeal with COVID.
Allen’s family was also negatively impacted by her hospitalization.
Allen can also no longer breastfeed since getting COVID.
Health officials say Allen still had pneumonia in her lungs and it will take her months to recover.
Allen is still on a bunch of different medications, breathing treatments, and still suffers from fatigue.
She is also working on getting her physical strength back after being stuck in bed for so long.
After looking at x-rays of her lungs, Allen says she knows they look bad and it worries her for the future.
Allen says now her entire family is being more cautious in their activities, while trying to not live in fear.
She says she knows they weren’t as careful as they could have been.
Allen says her family has added extra precautionary measures since school started including washing all her kid’s clothes as soon as they get home.
Allen says when her family contracted COVID, only her parents had been fully vaccinated, and her husband had just received his first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Allen says she herself was not vaccinated nor her children (since they were too young).
She now is waiting anxiously to get vaccinated after her physician clears her.
Allen admits originally she had no intention of getting vaccinated and was especially nervous of being vaccinated while pregnant.
Allen also has a message to share.
Allen says that also goes for those who are pregnant or plan to be soon.
As Allen reflected on her experience of contracting COVID while pregnant, she thanks her husband for his unwavering support.
