UPDATE (11/5/2021): Jim made an appearance on a Sanjay Gupta segment on CNN yesterday to tell his story and how he now pushes everyone to get vaccinated. The tip about this story was from SAV commenter Jackie McDowall (Flo Knight), a healthcare professional who, because of this story, became friends with Jim online. She says he's really come a long way and is fighting his anti-vaxxer friends to this day. See the video of the CNN Interview here.

And finally he says...
Thank you Jim!!! Congratulations, you are a champion.
YAY Jim
