For months, Jason Lerato felt pressured to get vaccinated against COVID-19 and for months he held his ground.

At 47 years of age, the Manitoba man had stood firmly against all vaccines for decades, and nothing — advice from public health, assurances from his personal doctor, pressure from his wife — would change his mind.

But Lerato said over a three-hour conversation, his brother-in-law and sister-in-law — who both work in the medical field — were gently able to change his mind.

“They answered all my fears, questions, concerns — you know, all the theories that I believed in based on so-called doctors and scientists that pushed that the vaccine is going to kill you, that the government sought to control you,” he said.

“They did it with integrity, they did it with sincerity, they did it with love instead of trying to push it down my throat.

“It just flipped me around.”
