Kinli

Kinli is a Laramie Middle School student with asthma and congenital lung conditions. She lost a family member to COVID and almost lost a second. Wyoming Public Radio's Jeff Victor spoke to Kinli about finally getting vaccinated. She says everyone who is able to get a vaccine should get one — especially to protect the immunocompromised people who can't get one themselves.

Jeff is an independent contributor to Wyoming Public Media, as well as the owner and editor of the Laramie Reporter, a free online news source providing in-depth and investigative coverage of local events and trends.
