Edgar Ramírez shares emotional #Instagram post mourning family, friends lost to Covid-19
"My heart can’t just take more pain. I am sad, I am frustrated, I am devastated," he wrote in his Instagram post.
Edgar Ramirez attends for FX's "The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story" in Los Angeles on Aug. 15, 2018.
Actor Edgar Ramírez opened up about losing several of his close friends and family members to #Covid-19, urging those who are able to get the vaccine do so.
"My heart can’t just take more pain. I am sad, I am frustrated, I am devastated," Ramírez, who recently appeared in #JungleCruise, wrote on his Instagram post on Wednesday
"It’s been weeks and weeks of my family being played, tortured and jerked around by this cruel, treacherous and violent #disease which mercilessly ended up killing them all. I can’t stand this void in my chest, this metallic taste in my mouth, this crippling headache that doesn’t seem to soothe."
Ramírez said that all of the friends and family members who died — his aunt Lucy, his uncle Guillermo, his aunt's brother-in-law Rafael, his grandmother Bertha, and his Venezuelan agent Laureano — wanted to be vaccinated against Covid-19, but did not have access to dose in Venezuela.
"Meanwhile, tens of thousands of #vaccines are being thrown away in the United States because a large number of people don’t want them," Ramírez wrote.
"It breaks my heart that so many people in this country are willing to snub the very vaccine my family would have taken in an instant."

Venezuela has #vaccinated just under 4 percent of its population of 28 million.
"As my family and millions of people go through the nightmare of losing their loved ones because there aren’t enough vaccines in the rest of the world, my hope is that anyone who can get vaccinated, do so today," Ramírez wrote, describing getting vaccinated as #an act of compassion."
"Don’t do it for yourself. Do it to protect those who are vulnerable, those with #immunedeficiencies, and all others who can get very sick if infected."
Ramírez encouraged his followers to watch a recent virtual discussion he had with Dr. Anthony Fauci, President Joe Biden's chief medical adviser and director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious #Diseases.
"If this aligns with your worldview and the way you handle your #communications, I would respectfully ask you to watch it and share this interview with Dr. Fauci and your socials," Ramírez wrote. "I’m just trying to turn this horrendous loss, and pain into positive action."
He shared the interview, which is about 10 minutes, in a separate post on his #Instagram page.
Though it has no relevance to our country, I brought it to our notice, so we could know that the disease is real, and getting vaccinated is mandatory.
No one prays to be the next #victim of coronavirus, but #prevention they say, is better than cure, let us all be a willing participants, any time the vaccine gets to our environment.
It better safe, than sorry. The vaccine is safe, and as of now, it still do not have any side effect. A lot of people are going out there to get vaccinated.
Let us be among the believers, and trust that the vaccine is good for everyone of us.
Let us all willingly #participate in the receiving of the vaccine.
We won't fall a victim of covid19.
