Delaware County: Hazmat drill provides acid test for area s first responders

SportsUSA TODAYObituariesE-EditionLegals Paul Comstock ThisWeek First responders in Delaware County don t encounter hazardous-material spills often, but they work to stay prepared just in case one occurs. The drill scenario was a traffic accident that caused a tanker truck to leak hydrofluoric acid, a highly corrosive and toxic liquid. It can cause dangerous burns through contact or by being inhaled. The event included 11 fire departments on the scene, evacuation of nearby residences, volunteers portraying hazmat victims and press briefings as the event unfolded in real time. The drill was coordinated by Delaware County’s Local Emergency Planning Committee, an interagency group of first responders, industry representatives and other local partners. 

Weston has put over 1,800 shots in shoulders

Rudy Ruggles Special to the Crier While operating within a less-than-perfect national and state-wide system, the Weston Board of Health has been responsible for well over 1,800 Moderna shots in shoulders. Supported by school nurses and the volunteers of the Weston Emergency Reserve Corps, almost a thousand townspeople have been vaccinated here in just a couple of months. When the state Department of Public Health put out the word in January that they were looking for local health departments that could commit to holding vaccination clinics soon and often, Wendy Diotalevi, Weston’s public health director, was quick to respond. In fact, Weston was the 22nd community in all of Massachusetts to be registered (there are now over 800).
