Shift to doctors’ offices aims to reach vaccine hesitant

SETTING SAIL

By Jesse Buchanan Record-Journal staff

Vaccinations have slowed, according to health experts, who are planning a shift from mass vaccination sites to doses given at doctor’s offices. Most who wanted the vaccine have gotten it, leaving those either opposed to getting it, hesitant or waiting for more information, according to Shane Lockwood, Plainville-Southington Regional Health District director.

"We're happy that people really wanted it at the beginning. Now we're just providing enough information so that those who haven't received it can make the best decision for them and their families," Lockwood said.

Early on the in the vaccination campaign, the hurdle was the number of doses being produced and transported to vaccination sites. There are now plenty of doses, according to Keith Grant, senior system director for infection prevention with Hartford HealthCare. Demand for those doses has dropped, though.

Those who have waited should continue to seek out trusted information on the vaccine, Lockwood said. "I understand why people wait. I think too often we try to just push it out without listening to some people's concerns. I think it's important to listen to the concerns out there," Lockwood said.

Matter of trust

but Grant said planning has begun for closing those sites and shifting vaccination to doctor’s offices. He expects more people will be comfortable taking a vaccine recommendation from their doctor. “You hope that people have that level of trust and rapport with their primary provider than the general medical community,” Grant said. “There may be people who are waiting to have that in-depth conversation with their personal provider.” The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention last month recommended “increasing the proportion of vaccines allocated to primary care providers medical offices to promote health equity and address disparities in adult COVID-19 vaccination.” The new guidelines recommend that at least 60% of doses distributed to medical offices be allocated to those in the most socially vulnerable communities. Having vaccines given at a doctor’s office like the flu shot could help normalize the process, Grant said. There are also societal reasons to get the shot as some reopening liberties are contingent on vaccination. “It changes the opportunity for us to socialize as normal people,” he said.

Local man is charged with shooting dog near his porch By Lauren Sellew Record-Journal staff

PLAINVILLE — A local man faces charges after police said he shot a dog near his porch. The animal survived the injury. John Niedzwiecki, 74, of 350 Long Swamp Road, was charged June 4 with illegal discharge of a firearm, injuring a companion animal and malicious wounding of an animal.

On May 20, police responded after Niedzwiecki reported he had shot a dog that was barking at him in an aggressive manner about 10 feet from his porch, according to his arrest warrant. Niedzwiecki fired one round from a .22 caliber rifle that struck the dog in the chest, the warrant said. Police were able to find the dog in a wooded area by tracking its prints and blood trail.

The dog was taken to a veterinarian for treatment that cost $4,099, the warrant said. Niedzwiecki told police in 2015 a dog had attacked and injured his mother, the warrant said. He was released on $5,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in New Britain Superior Court on July 14. lsellew@record-journal.com 203-317-2225 Twitter: @LaurenSellewRJ

Why an Irrevocable Trust May Be Superior to Outright Gifts. Parents and other family members who want to pass on assets during their lifetimes may be tempted to gift the assets. Although setting up an irrevocable trust lacks the simplicity of giving a gift, it may be a better way to preserve assets for the future. A trust is a legal entity under which one person -- the "trustee" -- holds legal title to property for the benefit of others -- the "beneficiaries." The trustee must follow the rules provided in the trust instrument. An "irrevocable" trust cannot be changed after it has been created. In most cases, this type of trust is drafted so that the income is payable to you (the person establishing the trust, called the "grantor") for life, and the principal cannot be applied to benefit you or your spouse. At your death the principal is paid to your heirs. This way, the funds in the trust are protected and you can use the income for your living expenses. While gifting assets outright is much simpler process than setting up a trust, the following are some of the advantages of setting up a trust instead: Income. Putting assets in a trust means you can receive income from the assets to continue to pay for living expenses. Depending on how the trust is set up, you can receive regular income payments or the trustee could have discretion to make payments.

Control. With an irrevocable trust, you as the grantor can maintain some control over the assets. You get to choose the trustees and establish the rules of the trust. You can also retain the right to change beneficiaries with a power of appointment in your will. Asset protection from creditors. If you give money to a family member directly, that money could be lost to the recipient’s carelessness, creditors, or divorce. Keeping the funds in a trust protects the assets for the future.

Endless Summer Hydrangeas 3gal $39.99

Taxes. If the trust is structured properly, it can have a tax advantage for your beneficiaries. Assets that have gone up in value will receive a “step-up” in basis on your death, which means your beneficiaries will pay less in capital gains taxes. Assets that are gifted do not receive a “step-up.”

Medicaid. If you anticipate needing long-term care benefits in the future, then it is important to plan. If you give away money or fund an irrevocable trust within the five years (the "look-back period") before applying for Medicaid, you may face a period of ineligibility for Medicaid benefits. The actual period of ineligibility will depend on the amount gifted or transferred to the trust. Putting assets in a trust allows you to plan while retaining some income and control over the assets.

Last October, Toffolon Principal Lynn Logoyke shared a wish for an outdoor learning space on the school grounds that students and staff could use to further enhance teaching and learning. “For a long time, we’ve been hoping for an outdoor space to use for learning. What’s better than getting outside for a story, or a lesson or even snack time? Even before COVID, we knew that fresh air is good for all of us, but now, an outside learning space is needed even more and we are grateful to the Carrier Group and others for making that happen for us,” said Logoyke.

With feedback from Logoyke, representatives from the Carrier Group developed several schematic designs, and narrowed it down to a final plan. The company got to work over the school’s April break, clearing and preparing a section of land in the rear of the grounds and constructing arched, stone stadium seating covered by a wooden pergola. “After receiving so much from our community throughout the years, it’s important that we give back and invest in our children’s future,” said Danny Carrier. Sue Bradley stated, “We are so incredibly thankful for the very generous donation of this outdoor learning space from our amazing School Business Community pro-

Once the outdoor learning space vision was identified, SBC partnership program coordinators Sue Bradley and Lynn Davis reached out to the local community to see if there was any interest in supporting the project. Johnny and Danny Carrier, vice presidents of the Carrier Group, Inc., answered the call.

The Carrier Group team reached out to several local companies to support the project. As a result, Washington Concrete, Tilcon Connecticut and Forestville Lumber generously donated materials.

“On behalf of Plainville Community Schools, I want to sincerely thank the Carrier Group, all vendors who made donations of materials, Plainville Rotary Club, Principal Logoyke, Lynn Davis and Sue Bradley as leaders of our School Business Community Partnerships, and all who were involved in making this wonderful new outdoor learning space possible.”

1958-59 PHS boys basketball team The 1958-59 Plainville High School boys basketball team battled its way to the Class B state championship title. Along the journey, with two starters missing due to illness, the team’s lone blemish was a loss to Southington. Making excuses was not appreciated in this era, and the talented Blue Devils used the defeat as motivation to help them capture the conference championship and state title, while rolling up a record of 24-1. This impressive record was especially noteworthy since Plainville faced state power East Haven twice during the regular season. The Blue Devils won both matchups, and snapped East Haven’s 64game home winning streak. East Haven had an opportunity to avenge the losses in the state semifinals, the most See PHS Hall, A9

COVID-19 VACCINE

ASK THE EXPERT

“If I’ve waited to get the vaccine, will there still be chances to get it in the future? How can I get it in the upcoming months?”

where people normally receive their healthcare services such as urgent care clinics, doctor offices and pharmacies.

This will be especially true for children as many parents are more comfortable with the trusted pediatrician providing a vaccination rather than a public clinic. The State of Connecticut has been attempting to register more pediatricians as vaccine providers to meet this demand.

“¿Si he esperado para obtener la vacuna, tendré oportunidades de obtenerla en el futuro? ¿Como la puedo obtener en los próximos meses?”

En las últimas seis semanas, hemos visto un cambio dramático de lo difícil que ha sido obtener la vacuna de COVID-19 a tener fácil There are plenty of acceso a ella tanto en vaccines available in pequeñas como en mega the United States and clínicas. A medida que Connecticut. If you van cerrando estas mega need some more time clínicas, la pregunta más please do not worry Shane frecuente que recibo es as you see some of the si las vacunas todavía Lockwood large clinic sites close Director of Health estarán disponibles en down. There will be a Plainville-Southington el futuro. Esta pregunta transition from mega Regional Health District usualmente viene de public clinics to small alguien que todavía clinics and more availestá indeciso acerca de ability in places and While I certainly believe in the efrecibir la vacuna, y que quiere examfectiveness of the vaccine and how from providers from where you inar la vacuna un poco más, ver si la it has saved lives, I also understand normally receive your healthcare vacuna tiene efectos secundarios en services. that some people may need more otras personas, o ver cuán eficaz es la time before wanting the vaccine. For those wanting to learn more vacuna.

Las comunidades will continue all summer long, de salud pública y de cuidado de with a transition to the vaccine salud han establecido planes para becoming more available in places In the past 6 weeks, we saw a dramatic shift from the Covid-19 vaccine being hard to obtain to it being readily available at both small clinics and mega sites. As these mega sites start to close, a question I’m asked is will the vaccine still be available in the future. This question usually comes from someone who is hesitant about receiving at this time and either wants to wait to study the vaccine more, wants to see if the vaccine has side effects on other people or see the effectiveness of the vaccine.
