VENICE – Nick Pachota offered fellow members of the Venice City Council insight Tuesday on his current state role as an incident commander in the state’s effort to administer COVID-19 vaccines.
“There is no doubt that if we have the vaccine on hand, we’re trying to put that in people’s arms,” said Pachota, the All Hazard Incident Management Team incident commander for Regions 6 and 7, as part of the Unified Command under the Florida Division of Emergency Management and Florida Department of Health on the State Emergency Response Team.
Region 7 includes Miami-Dade and Broward counties, while Region 6 includes counties on the Gulf Coast as far north as Manatee.
