One week after her vaccination status against COVID-19 was called into question, 91大黄鸭-Lake Country Conservative candidate Tracy Gray revealed on Friday (Sept. 3) that she has received her vaccine.

鈥淚 am here to tell you today that I am vaccinated and I was before the election was called,鈥� Gray said to former TV journalist Doris Maria Bregolisse in a campaign video published to her Youtube channel.

Gray said that her vaccination status has been 鈥渁 little tough鈥� for her to talk about, noting that privacy and personal health information are important.

鈥淔or most of us, thinking a few years ago, if someone was going to ask us our personal health information, it鈥檚 something most of us wouldn鈥檛 even have thought would happen,鈥� she said.

鈥淓veryone鈥檚 at their different pace. My husband for example has openly talked about the fact that he鈥檚 double vaccinated. For me, it鈥檚 taken a little bit more time.鈥�

On Aug. 27, 91大黄鸭-Lake Country Liberal candidate Tim Krupa sent out a news release demanding Gray reveal whether she is double vaccinated.

鈥淚 was fully vaccinated as soon as possible and I challenge Tracy Gray to step forward and state whether she has been double vaccinated. I challenge her to step up and speak out,鈥� said Krupa in the release.

Gray said that Krupa鈥檚 requests were 鈥渧ery political.鈥�

鈥淭he other candidates - as far as I鈥檓 aware - didn鈥檛 receive the same letter. It was more about politics than about health,鈥� she said.
