(FOX NEWS) – U.S. Air Force veteran Chad Carswell, 38, of Conover, North Carolina, is in desperate need of a kidney transplant to save his life.
But he does not believe that getting a COVID-19 vaccine is the best thing for him, and as a result — because he won’t take the vaccine, which is required for transplant candidates by hospitals in his area — he’s been denied a life-saving kidney transplant.
“I’ve had COVID-19 twice,” he told Fox News Digital in a phone interview on Thursday, Feb. 3, 2022.
