                              Coronavirus

  Mr. SCHUMER. Madam President, first, let me thank all of my 
colleagues for their kind words during my time isolating due to COVID 
last week. As you can see, I have made a full recovery after 
experiencing only mild symptoms, thank God. COVID has done incalculable 
damage to scores of American families, but because I was fortunate 
enough to be vaccinated and double boosted, my case was not as bad as 
it could have been.
  I urge all Americans who have not been vaccinated yet to talk to 
their doctors and get the vaccine, if possible, and then get boosted 
when the time is right. Speaking from personal experience, it makes all 
the difference in the world.
