“The plan was always to go to my friend’s house, get a group of friends together and just be young adults,” the rising college senior said. She’s been home in Fort Worth, attending New Jersey’s Fairleigh Dickinson University virtually because of the pandemic.
But the people living in the shared house she was planning to go to aren’t vaccinated, and Varela is.
