Sentara delays non-emergency surgeries COVID-19 hospitalizations reach all-time high

ing The Rose. “We will do it by building a topnotch tourist destination right here.”

The ceremony was held at the Potomac Landfill, a longtime construction debris landfill located at the southwest edge of Dumfries bordered by Va. 234 and Interstate 95, with the backdrop of dump trucks still hauling trash to the site. About 50 people braved the frigid, 25-degree weather to attend the event.

The landfill is closing at the end of January, about 10 years ahead of schedule. It has been in operation since 1984. Work on the new gaming facility will begin with capping the landfill, which Colonial Downs Group must do before construction can begin. That process is expected to begin within the next few months.

Sentara hospitals, including the Northern Virginia Medical Center in Woodbridge, suspended all hospital-based, non-emergency surgeries and diagnostic testing indefinitely as of Monday, Jan. 10, as COVID-19 hospitalizations reached record levels across the state.

Sentara, which operates 12 hospitals in Virginia and North Carolina, made the announcement Friday, Jan. 8 – the same day rising COVID-19 hospitalizations climbed to 3,329, breaking the previous record for daily COVID-19 hospitalizations set in January 2021.

The vast majority of hospitalized patients are unvaccinated or less-than-fully vaccinated, according to officials with both Sentara Healthcare and UVA Health System, both of which held calls with reporters Thursday and Friday to discuss rising COVID-19 hospitalizations.

Sentara facilities, in particular, are treating more COVID-19 patients than ever before.

COVID-19 hospitalizations at Sentara hospitals have more than doubled in the past week and more than quadrupled within the last month, according to a Sentara press release.

The hospital will continue all “life-saving and emergency surgeries and procedures” but the move to reschedule non-emergency procedures and tests is necessary to ensure safe and quality care for all patients, as hospital staff “is stretched to their capacity,” the release said.

“The current strain on all healthcare facilities is undeniable. We must balance the urgent need to care for large numbers of COVID-19 patients with what is being asked of our dedicated staff,” Mike Gentry, Sentara’s executive vice president and chief operating officer, said in a statement. “We cannot care for our community without first supporting our team

Local COVID-19 community transmission rate hits all-time high County adds 3 more deaths

By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

COVID-19 cases continue to surge in Prince William County and around Virginia. The local health district this week reached an all-time high community transmission rate, rising to 1,530 cases per 100,000 residents. That’s up more than 125% over the past two weeks and far above the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s highest rating, which is 100 cases per 100,000 residents.

The Prince William Health District, which includes the county, Manassas and Manassas Park, added nearly 9,600 new cases over the past week, also an all-time high. And that number is likely an undercount due to the prevalence of at-home tests, the results of which are not always reported to the state health department.

Both Virginia and the Prince William Health District set new records for daily COVID-19 cases on Saturday, Jan. 8. Across the state, 26,175 cases were reported that day, while 1,685 were reported in the Prince William Health District. The latter beat the county’s last one-day record of 1,567 local cases reported on New Year’s Eve. COVID-19 cases were “surging” in all 135 Virginia counties as of Friday, Jan. 7, a situation the University of Virginia’s Biocomplexity institute said was the result of cold, dry winter weather as well as holiday gatherings and travel.

“Virginia is now facing a different kind of winter storm, and one that won’t melt away so quickly,” the institute said in its latest report. “Models

now forecast a repeat of last year’s winter surge, with another peak in late January. Unfortunately, Omicron’s extensive immune escape may allow this year’s surge to dwarf those of 2021.”

The omicron variant, first detected in Virginia on Dec. 9, is “now likely the dominant strain” in Virginia, the report said, noting that the CDC estimates it represents more than 93% of new cases, up from 70.1% last week.

Local deaths

The local health district added three new COVID-19 deaths over the past week, bringing the local death toll due to the pandemic to 692.

The most recent victims included a resident in their 50s, one in their 70s and one age 80 or older, according to VDH data.

Local hospitalizations still high but down from the previous week

Daily hospitalizations reported in the Prince William Health District peaked at 82 on Dec. 29 but have since fallen to a seven-day daily of average of 28, down 20% since Jan. 7.

Still, about 250 local residents were released from area hospitals after being treated for COVID-19 over the past week. The number included 19 children under age 9 and nine kids and teens between the ages of 10 and 19, according to VDH data.

As of Wednesday, Jan. 12, 89 patients were hospitalized for COVID-19 at Sentara’s Northern Virginia Medical Center in Woodbridge. That’s down from a peak above 90 earlier in the week See COVID, page 6

Sentara delays non-emergency surgeries amid record-high COVID hospitalizations SURGERIES, from page 1 members as they so expertly manage this large number of patients.”

COVID-19 hospitalizations began rising across Virginia in the weeks following Thanksgiving but accelerated to new heights over the past few weeks.

Whether holiday gatherings are to blame for the rise in cases is difficult to say, Dr. Reid Adams, UVA Health’s chief medical officer, said during a call with reporters Friday.

“There were omicron surges before the holidays, so I think that started before the holidays, but I think with the holiday gatherings, people being in close contact in airports, public transportation -- that didn’t help with the exposure omicron that was already present in the United States,” Adams said.

Although the U.S. is now in the fifth wave of the pandemic, this is only the second time Sentara Healthcare has paused non-emergency surgeries and procedures since the pandemic began. The hospital system took similar steps from March 25 through May 1, 2020, to comply with Gov. Ralph Northam’s executive order, according to Susan Bahorich, a Sentara communications advisor.

And the situation at Sentara facilities is not unique. COVID-19 hospitalizations are up 200% across Virginia in the past month.

To deal with the demand, Virginia’s hospitals have adjusted and

restricted visitation policies, shifted staff and, in some cases, postponed non-emergency procedures, according to Julian Walker, vice president of communications for the Virginia Hospital & Healthcare Association.

Ballad Health, which operates hospitals in southwest Virginia and Tennessee, delayed some heart surgeries and procedures at its Johnson City Medical Center in Tennessee after “a significant majority of team members” who work in the cardiovascular surgery department tested positive for COVID-19, the health system said in a statement.

VCU Health has also postponed non-urgent surgeries and procedures requiring a hospital bed or donated blood products due to a surge in COVID-19 cases, the Richmond Times-Dispatch reported.

UVA Health System, which operates the Prince William and Haymarket Medical Centers in Prince William County, has not yet paused non-emergency surgeries, but the hospital system has had to limit transfers to their facilities, Adams said Friday.

During a call with reporters on Thursday, Dr. Jordan Asher, Sentara’s chief physician executive, attributed the rise in hospitalizations to the extremely contagious omicron variant, which is infecting more people. And although omicron is proving to result in milder cases of COVID-19 – particularly among those who are vaccinated – the huge number of infections

has resulted in more patients needing hospitalization.

A challenge for hospitals, Asher said, is that healthcare workers are also getting sick even though the vast majority are “fully vaccinated,” which the CDC defines as having had two shots of the vaccine, but not necessarily the booster. Many Sentara staff members have also been boosted, Asher said.

“Our healthcare professionals have done unbelievable jobs caring for those in need. And now we’re in a situation where those that are caring for those others are also getting sick,” he said.

Walker said hospitals continue to urge unvaccinated Virginians to get vaccinated and boosted a soon as

possible to reduce their risk of infection and serious illness that leads to hospitalization – both for themselves and their family members but also to prevent further strain on hospitals.

And Walker warned that even though hospitals have taken steps to adapt to COVID-19 surges and staffing shortages, “the health care delivery system does not have unlimited resources.”

“The current situation is serious, and if things remain on the current trajectory for an extended period … we could face the possibility of straining the limits of the system’s capacity,” he said.

Ken Burns warns of data centers’ ‘devastating impacts’ on battlefield

By Daniel Berti

Prince William Times Staff Writer

Award-winning filmmaker Ken Burns has penned a letter to Prince William Board of County Supervisors’ Chair Ann Wheeler (D) warning of the ‘devastating impacts’ a massive data center campus would pose to the Manassas National Battlefield Park, which he called “hallowed ground.”

The proposed “PW Digital Gateway” would replan 2,133 acres of agricultural land bordering the battlefield and nearby Conway Robinson Memorial State Forest to allow for new data centers, the huge, boxshaped buildings that house computer systems critical for running the internet.

Burns is the director of numerous documentaries films and series, including the groundbreaking 1990 television miniseries “The Civil War” and the 2009 miniseries, “The National Parks: America’s Best Idea.”

“As a student and chronicler of American history for more than 40 years, I can attest to how fragile our precious heritage is and how susceptible it can be to the ravages of ‘progress.’ I learned while making my documentary series The Civil War in the late 1980s—and again when I made my 2009 series on the history of the national parks—how crucial the preservation of our historic landscapes is,” Burns wrote in a Jan. 5 letter to Wheeler.

“I fear the devastating impact the development of up to 2,133 acres of data centers will have on this hallowed ground,” he added. “I implore you to seek more appropriate options

Under the PW Digital Gateway proposal, data centers would be allowed on about 570 acres of land directly adjacent to Manassas National Battlefield Park that has been recognized as significant to the Second Battle of Manassas but is not within the boundaries of the park.

Manassas National Battlefield Park’s former superintendent Brandon Bies, who served at the post until December, called the proposal “the single greatest threat to Manassas National Battlefield Park in three decades.”

Va. forestry officials warn of data centers’ impact on Conway state forest

By Daniel Berti

Prince William Times Staff Writer

The Virginia Department of Forestry is raising concerns about the impact on forestland in western Prince William County that could occur under a proposal to allow new data centers on about 2,000 acres near the Manassas Battlefield National Park.

Forestry officials said they believe the plan will have “a negative impact” on forest resources in the area and adjacent forestland at Conway Robinson Memorial State Forest and Manassas National Battlefield Park, according to a Dec. 23 letter sent to Prince William Board of County Supervisors Chair Ann Wheeler (D).

Virginia Forestland Conservation Coordinator Sarah Parmelee wrote that the proposal does not describe how the plan will “avoid or mitigate the potential loss of key ecosystem services” and failed to put forth any plans “to protect existing forest, es-

tablish new forest or replace forest lost through construction.”

Forestry officials are recommending that the landowners behind the “PW Digital Gateway” proposal describe in detail how they will avoid or minimize impacts to forest resources and the local ecosystem, including within the state forest and national battlefield, and how developers will mitigate impacts through conservation and reforestation.

“We encourage the adoption of open-space land conservation practices such as conservation easements to merge smaller parcels within the rural area and increased afforestation on unused agricultural land,” Parmelee said.

The letter follows a Dec. 3 letter from the superintendent of Manassas Battlefield National Park that called the proposed data centers the «single greatest threat to the park in decades.”

See FOREST, page 4

Filmmaker Ken Burns PW Digital Gateway proposal in July. It will likely head to the Prince William County Planning Commission and the board of county supervisors for a vote sometime in 2022.

Wheeler did not return a request for comment on Burns’ letter.

The plan has sparked bipartisan opposition in western Prince William County, where both Republican supervisors and Democratic state lawmakers who represent voters in the area have publicly voiced their objections to the plan.

Del. Danica Roem, D-13th, and Del. Dan Helmer, D-40th, who represent parts of the Gainesville area,

have both warned of the plan’s potential impacts to the national park and to nearby Conway Robinson Memorial State Forest.

A coalition of national, regional and local conservation and environmental groups are organizing against the proposal, including the Prince William Conservation Alliance, The Coalition to Protect Prince William County, the Piedmont Environmental Council, as well as the American Battlefield Trust and the National Parks Conservation Association, two national associations.

Nokesville resident Mike Rolband to head the Va. DEQ Staff Reports

Prince William Times

Mike Rolband, of Nokesville, pictured with his Cornell University students.

Virginia Gov.-elect Glenn Youngkin has appointed longtime environmental consultant and entrepreneur Michael Rolband, of Nokesville, to lead the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality.

Rolband, 64, will take the reins from Virginia’s current environmental chief David Paylor. Paylor has served as DEQ director since 2006.

Rolband declined an interview with Prince William Times, saying he was unable to do so prior to Youngkin’s inauguration Saturday, Jan. 15.

“Mike Rolband comes to the administration with an abundance of knowledge and hands-on experience, known as an environmental expert by colleagues across the United States; the team is grateful to have him as part of the administration,” Youngkin’s transition team said in a statement.

Rolband is a registered professional engineer, wetland delineator and wetland scientist. He founded the environmental consulting firm Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc. in Prince William County in 1991. Based in Nokesville, the firm

now has 210 employees and is “a leading environmental and cultural resources consultant in the mid-Atlantic region,” according to its website.

“Over nearly 30 years, his company provided services and permit approvals on over 8,000 projects across 300,000 acres in the region, including data centers, major transportation infrastructure, master planned communities and office and industrial developments,” the Youngkin statement said.

Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc. constructed Virginia’s first wetland mitigation bank in 1994: the Julie J. Metz Wetland Bank in Woodbridge. The bank is located on the southern end of the popular Neabsco Creek Boardwalk.

Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc., became a wholly owned subsidiary of Ohio-based Davey Tree Expert Company in 2014.

Rolband retired from Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc. in February 2021 and joined the board of directors of the Davey Resource Group, Inc., a Davey Tree subsidiary that owns all of Davey Tree’s consulting operations. From 2017 to 2020, Rolband was a professor of practice at Cornell University, where he taught wetlands and stream restoration.

From longtime landfill blooms ‘The Rose’ THE ROSE, from page 1 The gaming resort will feature a hotel with up to 305 rooms, eight restaurants, a 1,500-foot conference and meeting space, a cultural events center and 50,00 square feet of gaming space. Colonial Downs, which will own the gaming facility, has promised the project will be accompanied by a new public park.

The park will be built atop the closed landfill, which encompasses 80 acres of the 93-acre site. Colonial Downs will maintain the park for 10 years before turning it over to the town.

Colonial Downs opened Rosie’s Gaming Emporium, a smaller gaming outlet, a year ago in the Triangle Shopping Center in Dumfries. It will close when The Rose opens.

Gomes described Rosie’s as “a terrific success.”

“That’s why we know we can do more and create something that is even bigger and better” in Dumfries, he added.

“It’s time to create something new and exciting that will benefit our community,” said Dumfries Mayor Derrick Wood. In addition to the tax revenue The Rose will generate, Wood said he’s “most excited about the green space that will come.”

“I believe it will be a centerpiece of our community. I’m extreme-

An artist’s rendering of “The Rose,” a 50,000-square-foot gaming facility and 200-room hotel that the Dumfries Town Council approved in September 2021. ly hopeful for what Dumfries will become in the years ahead,” Wood said.

The park will include more than two miles of hiking and fitness trails, historical preservation sites, sport areas, playgrounds and a dog park.

“I see this in Dumfries as a transformation that will spread across Prince William County,” said Prince William Board of County Supervisors Chair Ann Wheeler, D-At large.

“This will bring people to Dumfries and Prince William County.”

State Sen. Scott Surovell, D-36th, said The Rose will allow Dumfries and Prince William County to get a share of the tax revenue generated

by Virginia residents who travel to Maryland to gamble.

“What has always bothered me is the $350 million going across the bridge every year” to the MGM National Harbor Casino in Maryland,

Surovell said. “What this does is create an opportunity for Virginia money to stay in Virginia and go to Dumfries.”

“Twenty years from now, Prince William County is going to look like a very different place,” Surovell said. “This creates a real opportunity to maximize that.”

“We are committed to Virginia, Dumfries and Prince William County, and we are in it for the long hall,” said Brent Stevens, founder and chairman of Peninsula Pacific Entertainment, the parent company of Colonial Downs Group.

The Rose is Virginia’s first casino-sized gaming facility that’s technically not a casino. By state code, gambling at “The Rose” will be limited to off-track betting and historic horse race betting machines, which are similar to slot machines.

The Rose is projected to employ about 600 people and generate an estimated $11 million in annual tax revenues for the town of Dumfries and an additional $8 million for Prince William County when fully operational, according to an economic development study prepared for Colonial Downs.

Va. forestry officials warn of data centers’ impact on Conway state forest FOREST, from page 3 A few days later, the county’s own environmental staff raised objections to the plan, citing “major impacts ... includ[ing the] loss of extensive tracts of forest land, dramatic increases in impervious area, impact to numerous intermittent and perennial streams, steep slopes with highly erodible soils, wildlife habitat (including habitat for rare, threatened and endangered species) and potential impacts to wetlands,” according to Benjamin Eib, assistant chief of the county’s watershed

management branch.

“The development of existing data centers has demonstrated that extensive mass grading and the nearly wholesale clearing and flattening of large parcels is the norm,” Eib wrote.

If it’s approved, the PW Digital Gateway will be among the most significant land-use changes in Prince William County in more than two decades. It would remove 2,133 acres of agriculturally zoned land from the county’s “rural crescent,” where development is generally limited to

one home per 10 acres and where access to public sewer lines is restricted.

The applicants for the plan are dozens of homeowners who live near Manassas National Battlefield Park who want to sell their homes to allow for data center uses. They claim the area has lost its rural agricultural character because of nearby development encroachment, increased traffic and a massive Dominion Energy transmission line nearby that was constructed in 2008.

POLICE BRIEFS 1 injured, 13 displaced in Woodbridge condo fire One person was injured and at least 13 displaced by a condominium fire in Woodbridge late Monday afternoon that officials said was caused by an unattended candle.

Firefighters were called to the building, located in the 15600 block of Weathervane Terrace, at 4:41 p.m.

Monday, Jan. 10. They arrived to find fire and smoke coming from a condo unit in the rear of the building. One occupant in the unit where the fire began was taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, and another resident had to be evacuated from the second story with a ladder, according to Matt Smolsky, assistant chief of the Prince William County Fire Department.

One unit sustained “moderate” damage. The county building official declared the entire building unsafe to occupy, displacing the occupants of 10 units, Smolsky said in an email.

The Red Cross assisted the displaced residents, who included at least 11 adults and two children, Smolsky said.

The Prince William County Fire Marshal’s Office determined the cause of the blaze was an unattended candle. The incident prompted officials to remind residents that lit candles can be hazardous and should never be left unattended, burned within 3 feet of combustible materials or left where children or pets can knock them over, Smolsky said.

Pedestrian struck, killed by SUV in Manassas A 42-year-old Manassas man died as a result of being hit by an SUV Saturday night in Manassas, according to Prince William County police.

Police identified the victim Monday, Jan. 10, as Raul Sontay Vicente of Manassas.

Officers were called to the area of Sudley Road and Sudley Manor Drive in Manassas at 8:22 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 8, to investigate the crash. Their investigation revealed that the driver of a 2006 Toyota High-

lander, a 51-year-old Manassas man, was traveling southbound on Sudley Road between Donegan Drive and Sudley Manor Drive, when the vehicle struck a pedestrian who was walking in the roadway, according to Officer Adam Beard, Prince William County police spokesman.

Rescue personnel responded and pronounced Vicente deceased at the scene. Neither speed, alcohol, nor drug use by the driver of the vehicle were factors in the collision, Beard said.

Lake Ridge resident suffers serious injuries from space-heater fire Prince William County Fire Department officials are warning about the safe use of space heaters after a local woman suffered serious burns when a space heater caught fire in her Lake Ridge home Sunday night.

The woman was injured while throwing the burning space heater out of a window, according to Matt Smolsky, assistant chief with the Prince William County Fire Department.

The home, located in the 12600 block of Purdham Drive in Lake Ridge, was only minimally damaged, and no one was displaced from the home, Smolsky said.

Firefighters were dispatched to the home at about 8:35 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 9, and found the occupants

had been alerted to the burning space heater by a smoke detector, Smolsky said.

The injured woman was transported to an area hospital and then transferred to the Washington Hospital Center for treatment, Smolsky said.

In the wake of the incident, the fire department is reminding residents experiencing any kind of fire in their homes to immediately exit their home and call 911.

Regarding space heaters, the fire department advises residents to: Keep any combustibles at least 3 feet away from space heaters; shield them from children and pets; and ensure all wiring is intact and safe to use.

Alleged gang members charged in 2019 killings Staff Reports

Prince William Times

Twelve alleged MS-13 gang members – including eight from Woodbridge and Manassas – were indicted last week on multiple charges, including murder in connection with their alleged involvement in four Prince William County killings between June and September 2019.

A federal grand jury returned a “superseding indictment” on Thursday, Jan. 6, for the 12 defendants based on their involvement in racketeering, drug trafficking and a “series of murders,” according to a news release issued by U.S. Attorney Jessica D. Aber of the Eastern District of Virginia.

According to the indictment, the defendants were members or associates of the “Sitios Locos Salvatrucha” clique, also known as STLS, of the gang MS-13, which has operated in Northern Virginia for the past several years.

The indictment alleges that since at least 2017, the defendants and their associates regularly traveled to and from Long Island, New York, to obtain cocaine and transport it to the Washington, D.C. area, where they and other gang members sold it primarily in restaurants and night clubs, the release said.

The indictment charged seven of the defendants with offenses stem-

ming from their alleged involvement in four fatal Prince William County shootings that occurred in Woodbridge and Dumfries area between June 22 and Sept. 24, 2019.

Mario Antonio Guevara Rivera, 26; Cristian Ariel Arevalo Arias, 26; and Carlos Jose Turcios Villatoro, 23, all of Woodbridge, were charged in connection with the June 2019 killings of Jairo Mayorga, 39, and Milton Lopez, 40, both of Woodbridge, the release said.

The men’s bodies were discovered by a local resident on Saturday, June 22, 2019, in a wooded area off the 1500 block of Featherstone Road, according to Prince William County police.

Melvin Canales Saldana, 29, of New York, and Manilester Andrade Rivas, 32, of Woodbridge, were charged in connection with the August 29, 2019, fatal shooting of Eric Lanier Tate II, 25, of Woodbridge.

Tate was found in the area of Bel Air and Jeffries roads in Woodbridge at 1:06 a.m., after officers responded to reports of shots fired, according to Prince William County police.

Guevara, Abner Jose Molina Rodriguez, 24, of Woodbridge, and Jairo Gustavo Aguilera Sagastizado, 26, of New York, were charged in connection with the Sept. 24, 2019, fatal shooting of Antonio Kaoul Smith, 37, of Dumfries.

Smith was found in the roadway on Chesapeake Drive in Dumfries, suffering from a gunshot wound, according to police.

Other defendants charged included: • Walter Jeovanny Rubio Lemus, 27, of Woodbridge • Karen Estefany Figueroa Alfaro, 29, of Woodbridge • Juan Manuel Vasquez Reyes, 40, of Manassas • Marvin Menjivar Gutiérrez, 29, of New York • Juan Carlos Hernández Landaverde, 23, of Annandale The defendants face various charges, including racketeering conspiracy, conspiracy to commit murder in aid of racketeering, murder in aid of racketeering, accessory after the fact to murder in aid of racketeering, witness tampering, using a firearm during a crime of violence causing death, possessing a firearm during a drug trafficking crime and violations of the controlled substances act, among other crimes.

The statutory penalties for the offenses range from a maximum of 10 years in prison to capital punishment, the release said.

A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors, the release said.

COVID, from page 2 but more than double the number of COVID-19 patients hospitalized there two weeks ago.

As of Wednesday, Jan. 12, 47% of the hospital’s beds were occupied by patients being treated for COVID-19, according to the hospital’s public COVID-19 dashboard.

Gov. Ralph Northam issued a new state of emergency Friday, Jan. 7, aimed at helping hospitals cope with the current surge by expanding bed space and easing some regulations on hospitals and health care workers.

Sentara’s Northern Virginia Medical Center did not disclose whether the hospital has added to its 180-bed capacity since the state of emergency went into effect, but spokeswoman Susan Bahorich said the hospital is ready to do so if needed.

“Sentara Northern Virginia Medical Center is prepared and practices for situations like this and has the availability to expand patient care outside of our license. For instance, each room is equipped with the capability to increase in capacity,” Bahorich said in an email.

The UVA Prince William Health Centers in Manassas and Haymarket do not provide their daily COVID-19 hospitalization numbers to the public.

Prince William Times | January 13, 2022

GUEST OPINION

‘Consider this one last try for my community’ Local doctor weighs in on a worsening pandemic I have practiced pulmonary medicine in this community for almost 25 years and can see that there are pockets of ignorance out there regarding the proper way to deal with the pandemic.

I have tried to use some of these points with my patients over the last two years or so, but quite frankly, I and many of my colleagues just don’t have the time or the patience to try and debunk all of the misinformation out there. It is like playing Whack-A-Mole, and neither party feels any better for it most of the time.

I will try and make several points. Consider this one last try for my community.

Ask your physician whether to get the vaccine, wear a mask or receive proper treatments. Do not consider this a chance to start a debate. Just ask the question and listen to the answer. Does it make more sense to adhere to what a trusted local physician who has likely cared for you for many years tells you – or a huckster carpetbagger selling snake oil?

I have been practicing medicine for more than 30 years and, as far as I know, I have not seen a case of measles, mumps, smallpox or active polio. Why do you suppose that is?

Imagine we had Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/etc. in the 1950s and ’60s. We would still be dealing with those medical scourges to this day.

Now imagine that a more lethal form of COVID, or a different virus. If our current societal attitudes persist, we will all be doomed. The more copies of the virus that are out

DR. RICHARD SWIFT

there, the greater number of chances another such variant will pop up.

We need to stamp out those extra copies before this happens.

If there were an institution that had the highest chance of being correct regarding how to successfully deal with a pandemic, doesn’t it make sense to listen to what they say? If you play the odds, it seems logical that you would go with those folks who had spent decades of their lives to understanding and treating just such a problem, not journalists with an axe to grind or a tribe to appease.

And for those who suggest conspiracy or monetary gain as the motivation for Centers for Disease Control or Virginia Health Department guidelines, then shame on you for smearing the thousands of hard-working souls in this community – doctors, hospital staff, first responders and the public health experts in our local health department -- who have dedicated their lives to helping us through this crisis.

If the moon landing was faked in your world, then I cannot help you.

Also, there is a bit of logical inconsistency with some of the most common arguments I have heard.

If you want to trot out some obscure study that purports to support your position of giving an unapproved treatment to desperate patients, yet completely ignore the recommendations of thousands of data points for mask wearing, vaccines, viable

treatments, etc., then you are not really thinking it through, are you?

Stay in your lane. Anecdotally, I have noticed that some of the most vehement opponents of legitimate scientific knowledge are those who tend to have the least amount of exposure, training or prior interest in the field to which they now espouse their “expertise.”

Reading some Wikipedia articles and quoting Tucker Carlson, et al. do not an expert make. Please have a little humility when trying to opine about that which you have only recently started exploring. It is like telling a pilot how to land the plane while the other passengers cringe. Most of the researchers dealing with this crisis have 5 to 15 years of formal education beyond high school under their belt. What was your interest or involvement in science classes in high school and beyond? Be honest with yourself on this one.

Know your sources. This applies to anything you research online. There are two questions you should always ask when you come across a “fact” on the internet: Who is telling me this? What is their expertise regarding the topic at hand? Why should I listen to them?

A mechanical engineer with a PhD opining about medical treatments or vaccine effectiveness would seem to have less weight regarding those matters than an infectious disease physician or an epidemiologist.

The second question is why are they telling me this? What is their motivation? What will they gain by spreading this information? Clickbait and “likes” are powerful forces online.

Lastly, some people object to vaccines or mask mandates be-

cause they don’t want the government “telling [them] what to do.”

If you stop at a stop sign, pay your taxes or registered for the draft, you are doing what the government tells you. If you lived on a mountain and off the grid away from everyone, then not getting vaxxed or not wearing a mask would likely be irrelevant. But most of us don’t. We live in neighborhoods and interact with other residents every day. We don’t get to be selfish and think only for ourselves.

Remember World War II? Imagine how your neighbors would feel about you if the government told everyone to adhere to a blackout because bombers were coming you decided to be selfish: “I want to read and watch TV, and I have that right since it is my house.”

Once those who survived finished cleaning up, I suspect their tolerance of you would be quite low.

That is exactly how the vast majority of doctors and nurses, respiratory therapists and X-ray technicians, dietary staff and cleaning crews think about those patients who show up at our local hospital or doctor’s offices, having ignored the pleas of the medical community, and expect to be treated, all the while spouting arrogance that somehow the patient knows how to best deal with the intricacies of this pandemic.

We really are at war, just not with a human enemy. Please turn off your lights.

Get vaccinated, wear a mask when you are supposed to, and help the rest of us help you and our community.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Don’t let data centers threaten county’s African-American historic sites There is a limited-time opportunity for our county to study and create a fitting public experience area for sites of African American history in western Prince William.

These sites are on the planning office map “Prince William County African American Heritage.” The sites are “the Settlement” and adjacent Thornton School. They are located in the Pageland Lane/Thornton Drive/Artemus Road area.

I call this a limited-time opportunity because these sites are in the central sector of land currently under study for the proposed comprehensive plan amendment (CPA 2021-0004), the Prince William Digital Gateway.

The application requests a change of the

underlying land use designation for the property from “agricultural” or “environmental resource” to “technology/flex” to create a tech corridor along Pageland lane between Va. 234 and U.S. 29. This change is intended to allow for corridor to be developed for data centers.

Our board of county supervisors showed us the importance of historical research and preservation of our Black history resources. On June 15, they appropriated $765,000 through fiscal year 2023 for the study, preservation and creation of interpretive areas of the Thoroughfare and Settlement communities of northwestern Prince William County.

Our supervisors are strongly encouraged to

consider budgeting and appropriating this year, funds for the study, preservation and creation of public interpretive areas of these Black history resources: the Thornton School and adjacent “Settlement” community.

The Prince William Gateway proposal directly threatens these historic sites. The supervisors’ decision on the proposed new data center corridor should be considered after the historical study is complete and a land-use decision for historic preservation is made.

Birds of a feather count together Volunteers spot 85 species in annual bird count

By Liam Bowman

Piedmont Journalism Foundation

Clifton Institute’s Managing Director Eleanor Harris leads volunteers in the Christmas Bird Count.

Eleanor Harris, managing director at the Clifton Institute, shows Juan Gonzales and Mariana Nance some birds to watch for. Gonzales does casual solo bird watching and volunteers at the Clifton Institute.

About 50 volunteers, split into nine teams, recently fanned out across a 15-mile diameter area around Clifton Institute’s nature preserve to count and record populations of the region’s native winter birds.

“We haven’t finalized all the data yet, but we had at least 85 species” recorded in the count, said Eleanor Harris, managing director at the Clifton Institute, in Warrenton. It’s “a little lower than average … but still quite a lot.”

In addition to the usual “backyard birds,” such as cardinals and sparrows, participants spotted ducks, raptors and a few owls, Harris said.

The annual bird count is part of a nationwide “Christmas Bird Count,” which the National Audubon Society has coordinated since 1900. The Clifton Institute has participated for the past 22 years, according to Harris.

“There are [15-mile diameter] circles all over the country,” said Harris, “and we’re responsible for our circle,” which encompasses the Clifton Institute property, The Plains and parts of Warrenton.

“The idea is to count as many species and as many individuals” as possible within that 15-mile zone.

The data is submitted to a national database. Because the data collection is standardized across the country, Harris said, the Christmas bird

counts act as a census, allowing scientists to compare population trends in different parts of the country.

“It’s just very unusual to have the same concerted effort for such a long time,” said Harris. Having such long-term data collection “lets us go back in time and compare what was happening 100 years ago to what is happening now,” she said with respect to local bird populations.

“That’s not something that’s often available in science.”

For Harris, the data collection also helps her and her colleagues find trends in local bird populations.

For example, while the American Kestrel, a species of small falcon, has been declining nationwide for years, Clifton Institute data has shown the species’ population has been increasing in the region.

“We’re doing some work to figure out why they’re declining, so [the local increase] is really encouraging,” she said.

Apart from the scientific value of the bird count, “it’s a fun way to hang out with other people who are interested in birds,” said Harris. With volunteers of different backgrounds and experience levels “there’s a really nice community aspect.”

“For me, it’s a tradition I look forward to every year. It’s a way of tuning into the natural cycle of the seasons.”

Out with the old…

How to deal of post-holiday trash The holidays often bring lots of new things into our lives. This also means older items are often replaced and need to be disposed of -- along with lots of cardboard and packaging materials.

Here are some tips for getting rid of post-holiday trash.

E-waste

Don’t leave old electronics around to collect dust and take up space. Technology changes rapidly, and it can be tough to find a new home for old electronics, also known as e-waste. If you can’t find somewhere to donate an old cell phone, tablet or computer, the safest and most responsible place for e-waste is a designated e-waste drop off location.

For proper and free disposal or recycling, Prince William residents can drop off e-waste items at the Prince William County Landfill on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Up to three items can be dropped off during each visit.

Remember: E-waste should not be disposed of in the regular trash nor into the county’s single-stream recycling system. E-waste can be a

Find out how to safely discard or donate unwanted items at www.pwcva.gov/trashandrecycling. dangerous if disposed of improperly and irresponsibly due to toxic heavy metals such as mercury, lead and corrosive chemicals. These substances can cause serious damage if they end up in the landfill. When this happens, chemicals can seep (or leach) into surrounding groundwater, potentially causing harm to individuals, as well as the

environment.

For example, lithium-ion batteries, which are in many electronic devices, can cause dangerous truck fires, while mercury-containing devices can break and release hazardous waste.

Decorations and lights

Old holiday decorations such as stringed lights should not be placed in the recycling bin.

These items are considered “tanglers” and create problems for recycling centers. String lights should be placed in the trash or look for a specialty recycler on www.Earth911.com.

Holiday decorations still in good conditions may be donated to organizations such as Goodwill, Habitat Restore or others. A list of reuse establishments in the county can be found on the Prince William Solid Waste website: www.pwcva.gov/trashandrecycling.

Packaging

Cardboard shipping boxes and gift boxes can be placed in curbside recycling containers. Larger boxes must be flattened and cut to a 2-feet by 2-feet or smaller. Be sure to remove all the packing material.

Paper packing material can also be placed in curbside recycling along with most plain wrapping paper.

Styrofoam® inserts and packing peanuts should be placed in the garbage, however. Remove the air from plastic air pillows and recycle them with plastic bags at grocery stores and other retailers or place them in the trash. Bubble wrap can also be recycled with plastic bags.

STICKING TOGETHER

The newly-formed Gainesville/Patriot High ice hockey team features 11 players from Gainesville and 10 from Patriot. They’re 2-3-1 with four games left.

Gainesville, Patriot High join forces in Northern Virginia School Hockey League

By Jason S. Rufner Special to the Times

They compete against each other as Cedar Run District rivals in all sports, but in ice hockey the Patriot Pioneers and Gainesville Cardinals are teammates.

Call them the Cardineers.

They merged out of convenience. As a newly opened school for this academic year, Gainesville is getting its feet wet in club ice hockey.

More established Patriot teamed with Rappahannock last year to go 6-4-0 and win a title in the Northern Virginia School Hockey League (NVSHL).

Open to varsity, junior varsity and middle school club-based teams, the NVSHL does a remarkable service bringing hundreds of players together to compete at local rinks.

There are 22 teams in the varsity division, including 12 stocked by at least 15 players from a single school, like the current league-leading Battlefield Bobcats (6-0-0).

The other 10 teams combine players from two schools into one squad, like Gainesville/Patriot, which has a record of 2-3-1 with four games left.

For the playoffs the combo teams and oneschool teams go into their own brackets.

Joining forces

Gainesville/Patriot so-head coaches Keith Owen and Chuck Robinson hope two complete programs emerge from this year’s combo club.

“With the opening of Gainesville this year and many of these kids having played middle school hockey together, it only made sense to combine the programs in order to keep hockey going at Patriot and start the spread of the hockey bug at Gainesville,” they said via email.

“There will likely be a time when the programs need to split.”

Of the 21-player roster, 11 attend Gainesville and 10 hail from Patriot. Owen’s son Keiran goes

But on the ice, they all wear red and blue.

Rising stars

The top three scorers in the NVSHL’s fiveteam Patrick Division are on the Gainesville/Patriot team.

Jacob Wolfrey, a Patriot junior, leads the division and is tied for ninth in the league with eight goals to go along with four assists. Brendan Robinson has authored seven goals and three assists, while Ben Barrett is third in the Patrick with five goals and fourth with nine total points.

“Each brings a high level of skill to the team,

with all three having the Gainesville/ ability to make big plays Patriot roster anytime they are on the Jacob Wolfrey ice,” the coaches said.

Brendan Robinson “All three players are Ben Barrett well-rounded kids with a Brady Sullivan passion and drive for the Jayden So game, all three are great Ryan Carlton kids on and off the ice and Declan Dupre will be mainstays throughKieran Owen out their high school playThomas Cory ing days.”

Ethan Mirabile Barrett, a Patriot junior and Brennen Lettman alternate captain, is “an Tyler Sanitra extremely explosive player Nathan Patterson with or without the puck.”

Michael Kolias Robinson, a Gainesville Tyler Couch freshman with a four-goal Sam Johnson game to his credit, has “a GOALIES: Nick knack for burying pucks in Erickson, Taylor the net.”

Wilkerson A crop of sophomores and freshmen, led by Ryan Carlton, Jayden So, and Declan Dupre, add depth to the squad’s first two lines. Those three have combined for five goals and six assists.

“With the core of young players we have, our future looks extremely bright,” the coaches said.

The defense is led by Patriot senior and captain Brady Sullivan, who “brings unmatched energy and an outstanding compete level.” From the blue line, Sullivan has collected three goals and four points.

He’s flanked by Nate Patterson, a steady stay-athome defenseman and the team’s only other senior.

Gainesville sophomore Amadeo Pivonka is a “physical presence,” while junior Tyler Couch and sophomore Tyler Sanitra are experienced blue-liners.

With four regular-season games remaining, Gainesville/ Patriot (2-3-1) needs to win out to make the NVSHL’s provisional playoffs.

The coaches believe a playoff spot is still within the team’s grasp.

“Having only two seniors, three juniors, and the remaining players being sophomores and freshmen, the NVSHL should get used to seeing Gainesville/ Patriot in the playoffs,” Owen and Robinson said.

Jacob Wolfrey (No. 15) has eight goals and four assists and leads the team in scoring with 12 points.

Shirley Louise Soule November 30, 1936-December 9, 2021 Shirley Louise (Rabens) Soule, 85, of Warrenton, VA passed away peacefully at her home on December 9, 2021. She was born November 30, 1936, in Charleston, South Carolina.

Preceded in death by her husband, John (Jack) Whitman Soule; father, John Henry Louis Rabens, Sr.; her mother, Louise Campbell Rabens; and her sister, Linda Rabens Mizzell. mShirley is survived by her two sons, Jeffrey (Jeff) Whitman Soule and his wife, Lyn Ellen Good-Soule, and John (Doug) Douglas Soule. Jeff and Doug lovingly cared for their mother in her home with the assistance of Denise Leatherhand (Daycare person) and Heartland Hospice, especially her nurse, Jackie and her medical aide, Deborah. She is also survived by her sister, Joan Rabens Walker and her husband, Howard; and her brother, John Henry Rabens, Jr. and his wife, Becky; and her brother-inlaw, Bobby Mizzell.

Shirley dearly loved her grandchildren, Misty Soule (Jon Hayes); Christina Hughes and her husband, Drew; and especially Ian Soule (Dana Espinosa), who lived with her while growing up.

Her great-grandchildren, June Eloise Hughes and Jovie Leanna Hughes, brought her many smiles and such joy. Her family had just recently grown with Jeff and Lyn’s marriage and gave her step-grandchildren, RJ Good and his wife, Margaret; and Bekah Good, who came to care for Shirley deeply.

Shirley spent her years as a stay-at-home Mom until her boys were teenagers. Then she worked as a church secretary at Centreville Baptist Church, worked at Peebles Department store, and she retired after working as an Administrative Secretary for the Federal Government at the Command Center in Vint Hill, Virginia.

Her sweet and sassy Southern ways will be missed. She loved gatherings of family, friends, and food that she didn’t have to cook! She loved animals and especially missed her dog, Jazzy.

She loved to go on cruises with her sisters; it didn’t matter the destination. She missed her beloved Charleston, where she grew up, and loved having her toes in the sand at the beach. She enjoyed crossword puzzles, word searches, and reading mystery novels. When relaxing, she could be found watching NCIS (any of them) and Criminal Minds. While she hasn’t been able to attend church for a while her faith was strong, and she was a member of Warrenton Baptist Church. She left us with several beautiful, hand-written quotes in her bible, one of which Christina found- “When Christians die, real life begins.” This and so many more wonderful things will be how we all should remember Shirley Louise Soule.

A family gathering will be held on Friday, January 14, 2022, at 12:00 PM at Moser Funeral Home, 233 Broadview Avenue, Warrenton, VA. A procession will take place at 1:00 PM for interment next to her husband at Culpeper National Cemetery, Culpeper, Virginia.

Mason was born on July 27, 1946 in Winchester, Virginia, to Thomas Miles and Dorothy (Smallwood) McCarty. Mason started work at age 15 for Paul Mellon until he was drafted into the United States Army in 1966 where he served his country during the Vietnam War. In 1968, he returned home to Upperville, Virginia and went to work for Gulf in Reston, Virginia.

He married Mary Elizabeth Palmer on December 18, 1971.

In 1979, he went to work for Morgan Oil Company in Marshall, Virginia where he started out delivering oil and later became an Installation and Service Technician. He worked for Morgan Oil Company for 32 years until his retirement in 2011.

Mason was a hard worker and was dedicated to providing for his family. He never had idle hands and he was always working or doing something.

He loved to joke and laugh with everyone. He enjoyed going to flea markets, collecting coins, fishing, painting, working in the yard, taking drives, and listening to Johnny Cash. He was a friend to many and he will be greatly missed.

He is survived by his wife of 50 years, Mary; daughter, Lesley; son, Phillip; three grandsons, Caleb, Cody, and Ayden; one granddaughter, Cheyenne; and three great grandchildren, Emmilyn, Oliver, and Astrid.

In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to American Legion Post 295, 111 The Plains Road, Middleburg, Virginia 20117.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
