“As we continue to see COVID-19 cases rise in Warren County and the North Country, I want to reiterate my support for residents getting the vaccine. I received the two-dose vaccine series last spring and just got my booster shot two weeks ago. I am hoping those who have still not been vaccinated will visit with their doctor and talk about what is the best course of action for their health.

“We have seen the increase in patients at Glens Falls Hospital, many of whom are unvaccinated. From the beginning of the vaccine roll-out I have urged folks to get the shots. I want to thank the hard working men and women of Glens Falls Hospital for their continued commitment to keeping our community healthy. I also thank our county health departments for the hard work they are doing and I will continue to work with you through this pandemic.”
