On this episode, attorney Paul Durham will be speaking with Brinn Sullivan, who is the Senior Services Supervisor for the City of Portsmouth and organizer of Portsmouth's annual Holiday Parade.
PORTSMOUTH The Manchester Veterans Affairs Medical Center will be utilizing Portsmouth’s Senior Activity Center to vaccinate VA healthcare-enrolled veterans, regardless of age, with appointments required.
The clinic, according to Senior Activity Center senior coordinator Brinn Sullivan, will take place this Saturday, March 6, when veterans will receive the first dose of either the Pfizer or the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine.
Most importantly, Sullivan emphasized, the vaccination clinic, which is run by the Manchester VAMC with their own team, is accepting enrolled veterans through appointments only. It is not a drop-in clinic, and appointments are being made based on vaccine supply availability.
Fire chief pushing state for Portsmouth COVID vaccine site
PORTSMOUTH Fire Chief Todd Germain said he is still working to try to get the state to open a COVID-19 vaccination site in the city.
“I do know that the state is actively pursuing locations in several communities in our area. They have identified a site in our city and visited that site to see if it’s a viable option, but there hasn’t been any decision made at this point,” Germain told the City Council this week.
He also tried to partner with the state on opening a site, but that has not yet been successful.
