Don’t give up -- your vaccination call will come

By Jim Ridolphi Contributing Columnist

Like thousands of other Virginians, I was beginning to believe the call informing me I’d been approved for a COVID-19 vaccination would never come.

And it didn’t.

The good news arrived in the form of an email from the CDC (Centers for Disease Control), notifying me that my number had finally come up and it was time to schedule an appointment.

After several attempts to schedule were met with crashing websites or blank pages, I finally scheduled my slot for the sought-after vaccines.

I’d listened carefully to news reports that described a level of frustration with the registration system that raised sufficient alarm, so I felt I was well prepared for the process.

For days, I heard that recipients would not be able to choose which vaccine they preferred, and citizens should not be choosy and take the first shot that was available.

So, I was a bit surprised when the first question on the CDC registration form was “Which vaccine do you want?” There were three selections. In other words, all of the vaccines were available and choices were available — a pleasant surprise.

I chose Johnson and Johnson for several reasons, but mostly I only wanted to go through the process once and the J&J shot offered that option.

Appointments were scheduled according to what vaccine you selected, but all varieties offered slots within days of the email notice.

I received confirmation from the CDC regarding my appointment with instructions on what to bring and where to be.

Within minutes, I began receiv-

| Reader Views America is navigating in perilous water

Prior to the last 12 months, which proved to be exceptionally traumatic for America, progressives had been exploiting anything in this nation of 330+ million that could be used to restructure America into their version of a perfect society.

Modern America is barely recognizable compared to its former self.

With more reforms on the way, progressives have already achieved quite a bit of success: 1. God … the foundation upon which America was built and the core of its generosity and contempt for evil is no longer recognized in public institutions, despite God’s prominent role in evicting slavery and the nation’s belated emphasis on human rights; 2. National border … disregarding longstanding immigration laws, the border once protected by presidents and the blood of countless Americans is being overrun by illegal refugees, some of whom are likely drug smugglers, slave traffickers, terrorists and/ or worse; 3. Public safety … claims of “systemic racism” in law enforcement, which contradicts credible researched data, incited lawlessness, sanctification of felons and condemnation of those donning uniforms. Meanwhile, the individual’s right to bear arms is under intensified siege, which, if lost, will leave law-abiding citizens at the mercy of armed aggressors; 4. Right to life … while the Black Lives Matter movement is glorified and acclaimed, the lives of countless babies of all races and colors in the womb can be snuffed at the whim of their mothers; 5. Fiscal control … setting themselves above constraints that govern

CALL

Continued from pg. 6 ing notification from VDH (Virginia Department of Health) that I had been selected to receive a vaccine and should schedule through its website. Since I had the confirmation, I ignored these emails and patiently waited for my appointment day to arrive.

Shortly before leaving for the appointment, I checked email and noticed an alert from CDC informing me that I had not completed my registration and an important questionnaire form was missing from my application.

After several attempts, I accessed the CDC site and filled out the short questionnaire, submitted it, and ran out the door heading for the Raceway, and, finally, a real defense against a virus that had caused disruption for all who encountered it during the past year seemed within reach.

A cool wind interrupted the first signs the of pre-spring day as I lined up outside the iconic red barn at the old fairgrounds, joining hundreds of other seniors who were lucky enough to get the call.

“Everyone take one of these forms and fill it out before you enter,” the man in fatigues shouted as he distributed a single page of questions.

I mentioned that I already had filled out the same form online and submitted it, but the cordial soldier told me that was for federal registration and I was at a state-run vaccination center. Now, I could have retorted and explained I didn’t register at the state site, but got my appointment on the federal site, but this guy was working hard enough without my input.

It took only seconds to check no on all the boxes and gain entry into a long line that wound through the old barn, back and forth like waiting for a ride at Kings Dominion.

After an insignificant wait, I was directed to a station where an off-duty Henrico fireman prepared to give me the shot.

“Did you answer no to all the questions on the form?” he asked.

“Yes, twice,” I responded.

Seconds later, the deed was done and I became one of many seniors who have been vaccinated. With it came a sense of security that I can only hope will envelop a nation as more and more of us take the plunge.

I also left with a renewed respect for the many public servants and other volunteers who made the clinic run smoothly and provided more than just medicine to the residents they encountered.

LETTERS

Continued from pg. 6 wage earners and taxpaying families, progressives in control of America’s budget cite Modern Monetary Theory claptrap as justification for gross mismanagement, which certainly includes self-serving perks, abuse that aggravates inflation and burdens current and future generations with higher cost of living and massive debt. 6. Social reform … in the name of social justice, while defaulting taxpayers and those in arrears face the IRS, Federal subsidy programs, once properly directed at helping disadvantaged citizens and those in temporary distress, reward able-bodied people for not working, conditioning them to laziness and groveling instead of testing their capabilities, the backbone of America’s rise to affluence. Long gone is John F. Kennedy’s incisive challenge, “Don’t ask what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.” 7. Unification … claiming to be unifying America, progressives instead profile and judge everyone according to economic condition, race, sex, creed, and so forth, a divisive, anti-Christian concept that fosters resentment via blatant, false stereotyping: (a) Caucasians are privileged and bigoted; (b) people of color are oppressed, disadvantaged and needy. 8. Truth … reality is no longer necessarily a by-product of fact and reason, but can be shaped by misinformed and/ or misguided perceivers with access to platforms – politicians, newscasters and entertainers; 9. Patriotism … appreciation for America is no longer fashionable, evidenced by removing the Pledge of Allegiance from schools, while disrespecting America is tolerated, even encouraged; 10. Election reform … while proponents of the “For the People Act of 2021” hype the bill as an expansion of voting rights and a cleanup of corruption, critics assert it will lead to a federal takeover of the election process and give every member of Congress up to $5 million of campaign funding.

Throughout the course of history, the adage nothing lasts forever has proven accurate with many forms of government. America was birthed nearly 2½ centuries ago and became united about a century later with the end of the War Between the States.

The good ship America now finds itself in deep, dangerous water. Will it move out of the storm, better for the experience, or will it bring to fruition Abraham Lincoln’s warning, “America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves?” Daniel Corso Mechanicsville

Kudos to health district and county

I want to give a shout-out to the Chickahominy Health District and Hanover County for the well-run COVID-19 vaccination clinic in Ashland.

Kudos to their efficient operation. Thanks to all the workers and volunteers.

Now all we need is more vaccines for more people! J.M. Thomas Mechanicsville

Food pantries meeting need in the county

This past year has put a lot of added stress on so many people and their families, with the loss of various jobs and employers having to cut back on some employees’ hours due to the pandemic.

With these lost jobs, and some hours for others, come the decisions that have to be made whether to pay the household bills, the medical bills or provide food for the family. This is where the many food pantries in the Hanover County area and beyond have kicked in to meet this unprecedented need within our community and surrounding area.

There are many food pantries right here in Hanover County. The Beaverdam Food Pantry is ably staffed by Sandy Wilcox and her inner core of volunteers, Mickey Craig, Tom Harrison, Mr. and Mrs. Dave Hunt and Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Wilson.

Without the dedication of these individuals named above, many people would continue to go hungry and/or in need of food and sundries each week in order to survive during these trying times. They have provided food and sundries for up to as many as 200 families on a Sunday, who are very much in need during these times.

Another food pantry in Hanover is the Western Hanover Emergency Action Team (W.H.E.A.T.). They service Beaverdam, Doswell, Montpelier and Rockville area residents. This past year they have served an average of 62 families each week.

These outreach efforts have touched over 500 souls and is led by Rickie Hall Smith and her dedicated roster of volunteers.

There also is Moments of Hope Food Pantry, which is located near the Hanover Courthouse on Route 301 and was founded by Bob Hummer, who is the founder and executive officer. The everyday operation of the pantry is handled by Betty Jo Hayes and her capable staff of volunteers led by Maureen and Sydney.

There are many others not listed that help Moments of Hope reach out to their community and beyond, just as W.H.E. A.T. and Beaverdam Food Pantry do.

In closing, I would encourage all to donate what they can to one or all of these organizations as they “stand in the gap” for so many families during these difficult times.

Continued from pg. 1 within the FY22 [Fiscal Year 2022] to address these challenges and support our greatest asset — our workforce,” Lawson told the Hanover County Board of Supervisors as she presented the Human Resources budget review for the upcoming budget at a meeting earlier this month.

Nearly 50 percent of the operating budget is allotted for benefits and salaries, and the FY22 proposal includes requests for 14.6 new full-time positions, most of them in the Hanover County Sheriff’s Office and Hanover County Fire/EMS.

Remaining competitive in attracting and retaining employees is a critical mission for Lawson’s department.

She said this year’s problem has been exacerbated by record increases in Chesterfield and Henrico counties and the City of Richmond, with some of them offering packages that included substantial increases and more.

“It is important to note that historically we have been on par with Chesterfield and Henrico counties,” Lawson said. “However, this current fiscal year has shown we are already behind both of them.”

“While we are happy to provide this 2.5% merit increase, we are not keeping pace with our peers,” she added.

Lawson said Henrico teachers are receiving at least a 6.9% increase in compensation and Chesterfield is investing more than $13 million for all public safety staff and up to 70% of the workforce will receive additional compensation. They also are investing $46 million over three years for schools with $25 million in FY22 for teachers and support staff.

Henrico is investing more than $58 million in FY22 for teachers and schools, representing an 18% increase with starting pay going up $6,000.

“Remaining competitive with our peers from a compensation perspective is critical to attract and maintain talent. We have known for several months that our competitors have dedicated significant investments in their public safety and educational staff,” Lawson said.

Salary increases in the public safety and education areas in those counties could increase as much as $20,000, according to Lawson.

“We are already seeing a detrimental impact on our workforce as our employees are keenly aware of these pay adjustments,” Lawson said. “As we expected, the impacts are already having a domino effect. This domino effect will only add to the challenges we are facing with our recruitment.”

That combination of factors is hampering the county’s ability to retain good employees due to retirements and resignations and applications for new positions also have decreased. It is imperative that we provide funds to compete with our peers,” Lawson said “Otherwise, we are going to lose high-performing employees.”

In an effort to combat those competitive challenges, Lawson proposed several steps to begin a process that enhances the county’s ability to attract and retain quality employees.

Lawson said the 2.5% merit increases proposed in the FY22 budget are not on par with our peers but do include a $1.8 million increase for sworn public safety employees, coupled with longevity increases and starting salary changes. The FY22 proposal also allots $1.8 million to address teacher, support staff and bus driver increases. The plan included $3,500 increases in starting salary for sworn public service employees.

Even with the challenges, Hanover County employees will receive additional compensation contained within this year’s budget, including the 2.5% merit increase for all employees.

“In addition to the merit increases funding for a performance incentive for our top performers, market adjustments for specific positions and funding for meeting increasing health care costs complete the proposed 2022 budget from a workforce perspective,” Lawson said.

“Please keep in mind that these increases represent only a fraction of increases our peers are providing their employees,” Lawson noted. “Without these investments, we would expect to see significant increases in turnover.”

Lawson said her department will continue to conduct benchmark surveys, an annual review of all positions focused on starting salaries in comparison with others in the Metro Richmond area.

The most recent results revealed that 75 positions fell under that mark this year and required adjustment, and Lawson said neighboring localities have scheduled an extensive review of all non-public safety positions that will result in more adjustments in 2023.

“This could have a significant impact on our workforce, especially next year,” Lawson said.

In addition to the 2.5 percent merit pay, the top 15 percent of county employees will receive performance awards “to promote and award exceptional performance.”

The county’s proposed 2022 budget continues to fund healthcare coverage increases for its employees, a benefit to more than 80 percent of county employees. Premium increases were actually lower this year due to a reduction in claims.

Lawson lauded the hard work of county employees during the pandemic and indicated, despite the challenges, Hanover remains a destination point for perspective employees.

“Hanover County has always had a reputation of being an employer of choice as evidenced by our high performing workforce and survey results,” Lawson said. “We are fortunate to have a loyal workforce who consistently demonstrate consistent customer service to our citizens and those who conduct business here.”

Lawson said the county receives applications from all areas seeking employment in Hanover County due to that excellent reputation. She noted the quality of the county’s employees allowed the workforce to transition quickly to COVID challenges and maintain county services during a difficult period.

“Their resiliency and dedication are some of the many qualities that make Hanover county a great place to work,” Lawson said.

“I want to remind everyone how this past year has presented numerous challenges from the COVID pandemic to competing peer market adjustments on a very large scale. However, our employees have consistently remained dedicated and committed to their jobs as public servants,” she said.

Investing in those employees renews the county’s promise to service excellence.

“This budget demonstrates our appreciation through investments in our workforce,” she said. “We believe by investing in our workforce we will promote our commitment to service…. and demonstrate our greatest asset is truly our workforce.”
