[An unvaccinated couple with four children died
on the same day after contracting COVID-19.
Alvaro and Sylvia Fernandez, of Loma Linda in
Southern California, died within hours of each
other on 19 December, their family said.]

[Mr Fernandez, 44, was hesitant
about getting a COVID vaccination so had not
got his jab before developing symptoms
a few days before. His wife, 42, was also unvaccinated.]


[His sister, Alma Hernandez, told
Sky News affiliate NBC Los Angeles: "He wanted to wait
and do more research.
He googled information. He didn't want to believe
everything that was on the news.
"This is kind of an eye-opener for everybody
in my family that whoever is not vaccinated
definitely should have their vaccinations."

She added that her brother suffered
from underlying health problems, including diabetes.]
