For that reason, the idea appealed to me, at least until I was on the flight deck with my hand on the controls. They were so sensitive, the slightest touch pitched us wildly forward or sideways as we rose over the BTV runway and surveyed the surrounding landscape: The city of Burlington, Lake Champlain, Mount Mansfield and the Plattsburgh Air Force Base were all exactly where they should be. In fact, the experience was so realistic, I had a physiological reaction first sweating, then nausea. Engineer Manon Belzile noticed immediately and reassured me: Lots of people get motion sickness in the sim. Thankfully, she got me out of there before I hurled. It took 24 hours to regain my land legs.
The New York state Health Department opened a drive-through COVID-19 vaccination site in Plattsburgh Monday.
The facility on the former Plattsburgh Air Force Base will provide vaccines to all Phase 1a and 1b eligible residents by appointment only.
Proof of eligibility and appointment must be provided at a checkpoint and those failing to provide proof will be turned away.
People receiving vaccinations will remain in their cars.
The Department of Health says that eligibility will expand as more vaccine becomes available.
