Secretary Keara Klinepeter made the announcement that she and her husband are expecting a child in June on Twitter on Tuesday.
Her tweet reads, "My husband and I are expecting a son at the end of June. I’m sharing this publicly because I want my story to help other women make an informed decision. I'm vaccinated, boosted & thanks to scientists, doctors & my great teammates at DOH, I’m confident it was the right decision."
Her plea to pregnant women to get vaccinated was reiterated in a live press conference, which you can view on cbs3 Philly.
Klinepeter took over the role from Alison Beam who resigned last month, starting on Jan. 1.
