This is my friend Donovan Tildesley.

He can't see, but boy can he swim. He's a 4-time #Paralympian with 5 medals.

He carried our flag in Beijing.🇨🇦

Can you imagine how hard COVID-19 has been on people living with vision loss?

But they can't get vaccinated.

@gavindew Thank you Gavin!

Let's take care of our people.
