Coming from the hamlet of Plessis in the town of Alexandria Thursday afternoon, James H. Mercer said he was initially doubtful about how organized the site would be. He said he signed up for an appointment about two weeks ago and drove more than 60 miles to St. Lawrence County.

In an effort to assure a number of North Country hospitals continue to receive special benefits to help them remain financially stable, Rep. Elise Stefanik introduced legislation Monday to aid in the fight.

If a geographic area is deemed a yellow zone, the state Department of Health has made it mandatory for schools open for in-person learning to test 20% of students, teachers and staff at least once a week for as long as the school remains in a yellow zone. If the 20% tested reveal a positivity rate lower than that of the yellow zone, testing can stop, but if the testing reveals a positivity rate higher than the zone, testing will continue every two weeks. ....
