Health Dept. Will Investigate Health Concerns Related To Tower


This has now been going on for some time for folks who live around the Verizon cell tower. In February, the City Council voted to have the Health Department investigate health concerns related to the tower. This petition was brought forward by Ward 4 Councilor Chris Connell and Ward 5 Councilor Patrick Kavey, whose wards are in proximity to the tower. Local health officials are now stepping up and supporting the investigation of concerns related to a 115-foot Verizon cell tower at 877 South St. in a two-part plan.
IBerkshires.com reports, "The response was from Director Armstrong was 'we do not have the expertise.' I understand that. Why was that not given to myself or the residents back last August when I originally submitted the email back to director Armstrong, or not at the following meeting in which we presented the petition?" Conell said that he submitted this petition over two months ago requesting the Health Department to investigate the symptoms that were being reported by the residents that surrounded this cell tower.

New Tobacco Regulations Prohibit Smoking, Vaping In Public; Restrict Sales


Beginning June 1, smoking and vaping in Falmouth will be further restricted in where and what tobacco products can be sold and by prohibiting smoking and vaping in workplaces and public places, including parks, town beaches and public streets.
The board of health on March 15 voted for the revamped regulations that also include capping the number of tobacco retail permits in town at 35. The regulations state the intent is to gradually reduce the number of tobacco product sales permits in town by denying a permit holder a renewed license if it does not reapply within 60 days of the permit expiration.
The board updated the regulations based on model regulations provided by the state and now mirror state law, Health Agent Scott McGann said.

FDA chief expects J&J pause to run 'a matter of days'


Federal officials expect their recommended pause on Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccines will last "a matter of days," the head of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said Tuesday.
Acting FDA Commissioner Dr. Janet Woodcock said the exact time frame will depend on what officials learn over the next few days in their review of six cases of a severe blood clot reported after receiving the J&J shot, which she said seems to be "extremely rare."
The FDA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Tuesday announced they were recommending a pause on delivering J&J vaccines while those reports of a combination of the blood clot and a low platelet count — from six women in the U.S. between the ages of 18 and 48, among a pool of more than 6.8 million J&J doses administered nationwide — are investigated. Subsequently, the Massachusetts Department of Health directed providers here to stop giving J&J vaccines while the review plays out.

Massachusetts predicted to hit milestone in COVID-19 vaccine roll out


Massachusetts health officials are predicting that two million residents will be fully vaccinated by Friday.
And just like Rhode Island, next week Massachusetts will be opening up vaccine eligibility to anyone 16 and older.
“The vaccine saves lives,” Gov. Charlie Baker said Monday. “If there is any doubt in anyone’s mind about that they should take a look at the success that vaccinating older Americans has had on older American case counts and older American hospitalizations.”
So far, 5.2 million doses of a COVID-19 vaccine have been shipped to Massachusetts. With 86% of those doses have been administered.
On Tuesday, the Massachusetts Department of Health announced on social media they will be pausing their administration of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine to follow new federal guidance.
