RI House GOP Leader Won't Comment On Personal Vaccination Status

(Providence, RI) -- Democratic leaders in the U.S. are making sure they get the COVID-19 vaccine publicly as a way of promoting it, but Republicans have not been so eager. Regarding his vaccination status, Rhode Island House Republican Leader Blake Filippi has stated in multiple media reports that he won't answer questions about, quote, "private medical decisions". Only three of the fifteen Republicans in the RI General Assembly responded to a recent inquiry from The Providence Journal by indicating they had been vaccinated or planned to get the shot.
