"I truly believed that this would be the day I died," Josh told CNN.Josh was a 15-year-old freshman at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, and Adam was a 16-year-old junior that day a gunman walked into their school and killed 17 people."A sense of horror came over me when I heard blaring sirens and helicopters circling the air above the school," said Adam."After finally reuniting with my family, I cried for hours and my body felt so sore.
Adam, a sophomore at the University of Florida and Josh, a rising senior at Marjory Stoneman Douglas, say they've seen a lot of people not taking proper precautions in a state where cases are spiking. Florida is currently seeing a record number of new coronavirus cases a day along with Texas and California. The brothers want people to feel accountable for their actions.
