Border Patrol chief Raul Ortiz revealed on Wednesday that he tested positive for COVID-19 shortly before he was set to receive his booster shot, and urged people to get vaccinated. “Earlier today I was set to receive my Booster but was feeling symptomatic and took a #COVID test. I tested positive and am self-isolating, hopeful to feel better,” Ortiz wrote on Twitter. “My symptoms may have been worse had I not been vaccinated.” “I urge everyone to follow the guidance from health professionals and get vaccinate [sic]. I am one of hundreds of #USBP personnel in quarantine. Our frontline agents have battled this virus from the onset and I commend them. We will continue to be #vigilant as we protect our nation,” Ortiz said.
