PAT STEVENSON
GOOD NEWS YOU CAN USE!-
The COVID 19 Vaccine is now being distributed around the world and a Black Nurse at a hospital in Queens, NY was the first to receive the vaccine in the United States. Dr Fauci also announced that the Modena Vaccine was actually developed in hisinstitute’s vaccine research center by a team of scientists led by Dr. Barney Graham and his close colleague, Dr. Kizzmekia Corbett, or Kizzy Corbett (an African-American woman). Since I have 4 of the 5 risk factors for COVID, I will be looking forward to taking the vaccine as soon as is available – after I have observed the thousands who would have gone before me for about a month. We will also look forward to the numbers declining and no longer having the threat of a shut down of non essential businesses in early 2021. 2021 is looking like the year of “Hope.” We now have a confirmed new administration coming into leadership of our nation as Joseph Biden was certified by the electoral college today as the winner and next president of the United States, along with the new Vice President elect Kamarla Harris. We can now look forward to restoration of honesty, sanity and the democratic process at work. “Stay Home for the Holidays” – those are the words being echoed from the President-elect, the Governor, the mayor and the CDC. Resist traveling to be with your loved ones and yes be fearful you may take COVID to them or they may transfer COVID to you. Let us all be as safe as possible and look forward to all the hugging and kissing we can do hopefully next year during the holidays. Remember to shop with local businesses in the community this holiday season. Many small businesses are trying to recover from the shut down during the Pandemic and they can use your support. Also remember when you shop with businesses in your community it is more likely that money will continue to circulate within your community. Many of our small business owners live in the community and are raising their family in the community. See some small businesses you can shop with now and throughout the holiday season. (see pages 14-15). You can visit our website to see past issues, past videos, current events, subscription information, etc. at www. harlemcommunitynews.com. We are also on instagram and facebook.
