Vaccination Numbers Rise Along with Variant Concerns

Vaccination Numbers Rise Along with Variant Concerns Written by Putnam County Health Department COVID case numbers in Putnam County remain high, and this raises concern among local health officials. Increasing case numbers in March, after an all-time high in January, are especially worrisome given the backdrop of more transmissible virus variants spreading across the country. Officials everywhere are hoping the race to vaccinate can outpace the rise in case numbers.  “Rising case numbers cause concern for setbacks in reopening,” said Alison Kaufman, DVM, MPH, the new epidemiologist, recently welcomed at the Putnam County Department of Health. The science of epidemiology, which is essentially the study of community disease patterns in a search for causes and solutions, is the backbone of evidence-based public health practice. Dr. Kaufman, who holds a doctorate of veterinary medicine, in addition to a master’s degree in public health, joined the staff in March.

The Putnam County Department of Health administered 307 vaccines to seniors 75 and older and essential workers on Thursday at the Philipstown Recreation Center. That follows two successful vaccine points of dispensing, or PODS, at the Carmel Friendship Center, which vaccinated 611 people. “Thursday’s venue was ideal, it means the health department now has a location in Philipstown and another in Carmel to administer the vaccine,” said County Executive Odell. “I even heard seniors remark how nice it was to see friends who they hadn’t seen since the Office of Senior Resources programs were paused early last year.”
