LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Sgt. Tom "TJ" Jenkins with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department is sharing his COVID-19 experience and encouraging everyone to be vaccinated.

Jenkins says he initially thought he had the flu and he didn't take wearing a mask seriously before getting sick.

All that changed when he was diagnosed on June 24.
