April COVID-19 cases take jump in Eastern U.P. | News, Sports, Jobs

May 10, 2021
NEWBERRY — COVID cases continue to rise in the Eastern U.P., according to the LMAS Health Departmentofficials. During March 2021, the counties of Luce, Mackinac, Alger, and Schoolcraft, added 59 confirmed cases of COVID and 73 probable cases, for a total increase of 132. However, from April 4 to May 5, 2021, the LMAS counties have added 179 confirmed cases, and 146 probable cases for a total of 325 additional cases. Mackinac County added 77 confirmed and 54 probable in the last month, while Luce added 41 confirmed and 59 probable. Alger and Schoolcraft counties both increased by a total of 47 cases.
“As COVID vaccinations received emergency use authorization and became available in December 2020, there was a sense of relief and hope, but what followed has been a trend to abandon all precautions before we reach the needed levels of immunity to be able to safely move forward,” health officials said in a press release. “Some restrictions are being eased, especially for those who are fully vaccinated, but with variants on the rise in the region, individuals not wearing a mask, and the growing number of large indoor and outdoor gatherings, more cases are the result. The more people who are infected with COVID, the greater chance of more variants developing, and greater the risk of one of those variants being resistant to the vaccines and the existing treatments for COVID disease.

Lack of supply, people’s hesitation cited as reasons for slow progress
When it comes to healthcare Tamil Nadu has always been cut above the rest – be it in terms of infrastructure, public facilities and accessibility due to a strong network.
While the State also managed the Covid-19 crisis well, it is, however, lagging behind in vaccinationg. As of Wednesday (8 am), Tamil Nadu had received 65.3 lakh vaccine doses and consumed (including wastages) 61.7 lakh doses.
At least 9 States – Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat, West Bengal, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar and Kerala - are ahead. Maharashtra is the top state with total consumption (including wastages) of 1.53 crore doses.

Tepid response by healthcare workers for vaccination shocks Health Dept. officials

Only 19,219 got the shot as against 36,664 beneficiaries
Mysore/Mysuru: With 52 percent of healthcare workers getting vaccinated during first round of vaccination drive till yesterday in Mysuru district, the Health Department officers are planning to wrap up in next two to three days without waiting for others to get it.
From Jan. 16 to Feb. 5, only 19,219 healthcare workers have received the shot as against the target of 36,664 beneficiaries. This tepid response by healthcare staff has disappointed Health Department Officials who had expected good response from them. Initially, the response was very good but it dropped subsequently following rumours about people taking ill after being vaccinated. Many healthcare workers were scared to take the vaccine fearing Adverse Events Following Immunisation (AEFI).
