Hope for the future : COVID-19 vaccinations begin in Pasquotank

Jerry Newell and his staff at Pasquotank-Camden Emergency Medical Services have been dug in against COVID-19 since the pandemic began in March. Perhaps no one in the two counties has had more interaction with COVID-19 patients than Newell and his group of frontline workers. On Tuesday, Newell, who is the local EMS director, became Albemarle Regional Health Services’ first patient in Pasquotank County to receive the COVID-19 vaccination. “That’s alright,” said Newell, after learning he was the first. “I’m honored to have it.” Newell and 13 of his staff received their vaccinations aboard ARHS’ mobile laboratory in the agency’s parking lot off Roanoke Avenue, Tuesday. Administering the vaccinations was Amy Rosenburger, ARHS nursing supervisor for Pasquotank.

Area sees uptick in fatal shootings

The Albemarle was plagued by a rash of fatal shootings in 2020. The youngest victim was 9-year-old Makiia Slade, who was shot to death in Edenton July 24. Her mother also was injured in the incident. Slade and her mother, Shatory Hunter Slade, were shot by someone in a passing vehicle as they were traveling in their vehicle on U.S. Highway 17 South near the West Queen Street interchange, according to then Chowan County Sheriff Dwayne Goodwin. In September, state Sen. Bob Steinburg, R-Chowan, announced a $5,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Makiia Slade’s killer. The money was contributed by anonymous donors.
