The\r\nattending physician's office notified all Senators that we are to receive the\r\nCOVID-19 vaccine in order to maintain continuity of government. Following this\r\nguidance, I received the vaccine this morning from the attending physician in\r\nWashington and am feeling well. In addition to receiving the vaccine, I will\r\ncontinue following the recommendations from the CDC by wearing a mask and\r\npracticing social distancing to keep myself and others as safe as possible.\r\nThis vaccination is an important step towards defeating this virus and I\r\nencourage all West Virginians to receive it when it becomes available in your\r\narea, said Senator Manchin. But we are not out of the woods yet. I\r\nurge Congressional leadership to finalize a COVID-19 emergency relief package\r\nto provide Americans with the urgent support they desperately need to make it\r\nthrough the next few months. As leadership continues to negotiate I encourage\r\nthem to include the bipartisan, bicameral agreement we shared earlier this week\r\nin the final package.
