. KADENA AIR BASE, Okinawa – The coronavirus vaccine is becoming more widely available to U.S. service members and their families in Japan but turnout Friday at a Kadena shot clinic left a health care professional disappointed. Maj. Allen Hauser, chief of pharmacy operations and a vaccine project coordinator for the 18th Medical Group, watched intently as several dozen people waited on bleachers after receiving their shots inside the Risner Fitness and Sport Complex. Another dozen lined up nearby for their jab. “We’d love to have more” patients, Hauser said. “It’s not necessarily that they have been slow to get out. It might simply be a matter of declination.”
Clyde Mayor Jim Trantham called the monthly meeting of the Town Board to order Dec. 10 with Mayor Pro Tem Frank Lay II, and aldermen John Hemingway, Dann Jesse and Diane Fore in attendance.
Alderman Jesse brought the board up to speed on the August offer by Pastor Roy Watkins to donate the building Louisa Chapel to the town.
The church closed in May due to declining membership. It is the oldest Methodist Church in Haywood County, so Watkins, who was the churchâs last pastor, is working with Methodist Church leaders to preserve the landmark.
Jesse, who represents the town on the Haywood County Historical and Genealogical Society, said the group has been meeting with church leaders and concluded the town wasnât in a position to support the project for now.
