(Screenshot) PLATTSBURGH Like North Country Chamber of Commerce President Garry Douglas, state Attorney General Letitia James does not like needles. But, also like Douglas, she rolled up her sleeve and got the COVID-19 vaccine because she wants a return to normalcy. That will take 85% of the population getting vaccinated, she said during a virtual conversation with Douglas Friday. “The sooner we are vaccinated, the sooner we can remove these masks, the sooner we can touch one another, hold one another, the sooner that we can be together with our friends and our family and the sooner that I can travel to the North Country so that Garry and I can go shopping, that’s what’s important,” she said, jokingly.
