Lynard Joiner almost died from COVID-19 and even 8 months later still suffers from long-term lung and heart damage.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

He shares his experience and a message: \u201cCOVID is for real. Do the right thing, wear your mask, stay safe and help keep others safe.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

He adds, \u201cYour mask is not only to protect you, it’s also to protect others and just keep us all safe, and that’s the only way we’re going to get over it, it’s working together to keep us safe.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
