State ramps up Covid-19 vaccine distribution

Back in business? On Jan. 22, Mayor Andrew Cuomo announced that he would allow high-risk high school sports to begin as early as Feb. 1, pending approval from local health officials. The decision could pave the way for many student-athletesto play ball this year. For more, see page 16. Photo/Mike Smith

Cuomo announces $200M in infrastructure funding Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced on Monday, Jan. 25, the availability of $200 million in BRIDGE NY funding for local governments to make their infrastructure more resilient to extreme weather events. The new funding will allow localities to rehabilitate and replace bridges and culverts statewide. It builds upon $500 million previously awarded to 143 local governments since 2016 for the rehabilitation and replacement of 298 bridges and culverts. These strategic infrastructure investments have en-

hanced the quality of life for residents and businesses in every region of the state and have provided unprecedented support for making New York’s communities more resilient to the impacts of climate change. This initiative supports the goals of New York’s nation-leading Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act. “New York State and communities around the world are increasingly contending with extreme weather events driven by climate change, and it’s vital that we fortify our community infra-

structure to be resilient to those changes,” Cuomo said. “This newly-available BRIDGE NY funding provides communities statewide with the technical and financial support necessary to harden locally owned bridges and culverts, which will not only enhance their safety and reliability, but will facilitate regional and global economic competitiveness.” The BRIDGE NY application is available to all municipalities authorized to receive and administer state and federal transportation funding. Awards

will be made through a competitive process and will support all phases of project development, including design, right-of-way acquisition and construction. Evaluations will be based on the structural condition of a bridge or culvert and its resiliency and significance based upon traffic volumes, detour considerations, the number and types of businesses served and the overall impact on commerce. Consideration will also be given to projects that provide demonstrable benefit for Environmental Justice Communities. (Submitted)

Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Jan. 24 updated New Yorkers on the state’s vaccination program. The total week 6 federal allocation of vaccine delivery to providers was completed last Sunday. Delivery of the week 7 allocation from the federal government does not begin until the middle of this week. As of 11a.m. Sunday, New York’s health care distribution sites have received 1,304,050 first doses and administered 88% or 1,144,070 first dose vaccinations. “As our week six allocation finishes arriving to providers today, New York has already administered 88 percent of its first doses, demonstrating once again that the problem we face is lack of supply from the federal government,” Cuomo said. “We have the operational capacity to do over 100,000 doses a day— we just need the dosages. In the meantime, the state will continue working around the clock to get shots into arms quickly, and providers must continue administering to their assigned priority populations in order to ensure equity of distribution during this time of

limited supply.” New York’s vast distribution network and large population of eligible individuals far exceed the vaccine supply coming from the federal government. While the federal government has increased eligibility for the vaccine to include 7 million New Yorkers, the federal supply of vaccines has actually decreased. Due to limited supply, New Yorkers are encouraged to remain patient and are advised not to show up at vaccination sites without an appointment. Vaccination program numbers are for doses distributed and delivered to New York for the state’s vaccination program, and do not include those reserved for the federal government’s Long Term Care Facility program. A breakdown of the data based on numbers reported to New York State is as follows: STATEWIDE BREAKDOWN * First Doses Received - 1,304,050 * First Doses Administered - 1,144,070 * Second Doses Received - 564,600 * Second Doses Administered - 139,929 VACCINE continued on page 8

Rye Neck Middle School student

writes short play on pandemic As Rye Neck Middle School eighth grader Ella Grann sat in her school’s Performing Arts Center, she diligently took notes as a group of high school students recited lines from her original play. Grann, who wrote the short play during lockdown last spring, said she was inspired to reflect on the similarities between the coronavirus pandemic and other viruses, such as the smallpox pandemic, Spanish flu and Ebola. “The main message [of my play] is that humanity can overcome pandemics even if society is changed forever,” Grann said. “Other generations made it through these epidemics and pandemics, and we can make it through the coronavirus.” Grann’s play tells the story of four girls living in different pandemics or epidemics. One of her characters, Emma, faces smallpox at a time when marriage was a way that a woman’s worth was measured; Mary’s indecisiveness impacts how careful she is about avoiding the Spanish flu; Nyah is living in Kenya when the Ebola virus starts to spread; and when Sophia was a young child, her parents immigrated to the U.S. from Mexico and are now facing the coronavirus pandemic. Theater director and drama teacher Scott Harris, who taught Grann in his drama class last year and also directed her in the middle school production of “The Wizard of Oz” the prior year, recognized the young playwright’s talent. After reading through her drafts, he invited Grann to listen to his Intermediate Acting class students read aloud her play. “This is an integral part of the development process for a young playwright,” Harris said. “It allows her to hear her words spoken aloud rather than just reading them in her own voice off the page. This helps the playwright shape her script and realize what is working and what needs revision.” Harris described Grann’s play as ambitious and advanced for such a young student. “I was very impressed with the

complexity of the character development and the mature themes she tackled,” he said. “Rather than sit back and simply relax during the school shutdown, Ella took it upon

herself to synthesize what was happening in the world around her and compare that to previous pandemics, then boil all of it down to a short play that also deals with women’s issues.” Grann said she was grateful to her teacher and the high school students for reading her play aloud, which helped her refine it and make any necessary revisions. “I enjoy all of the playwriting process, especially hearing my words come to life,” she said. “I loved writing at the most random times when my ideas sparked. This was the first play that I have written, but I guarantee it will not be the last.”

To date, New York’s health care distribution sites have administered 88% of first doses received from the federal government but due to the federal government’s limited allocation, appointments have filled up quickly. New Yorkers seeking to determine eligibility and sched-

ule an appointment at a state-run mass vaccination site, can visit the ‘Am I Eligible’ website. New Yorkers may also call their local health department, pharmacy, doctor or hospital for additional information and to schedule appointments where vaccines are available. The COVID-19 Vaccine Tracker Dashboard is available to

update New Yorkers on the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine. The New York State Department of Health requires vaccinating facilities to report all COVID-19 vaccine administration data within 24 hours; the vaccine administration data on the dashboard is updated daily to reflect the most up-to-date metrics in the state’s vaccination effort.

Letters to the Editor

Readers: Why thank Trump? To the Editor: We write in response to the letter printed in the Jan. 15 issue of ​The Review​, titled “Thank you, President Trump.” We wish to refute several of the points in the letter. Why in the world should we thank President Trump? For relentlessly lying about his election loss, just to cite the latest set of lies? For inciting a vicious riot at our Capitol that endangered his own vice president and our elected representatives—and ended in five deaths, one of them a police officer? Far from believing that “blue lives matter,” the rioters attacked police officers. No, we’re not grateful for the entire Trump four years, including: • We are not grateful for the ineffective and uninformed response to the COVID-19 crisis that has cost 400,000 American lives—and counting. • We are not grateful for “lower unemployment,” since it is not lower under Trump.According to the Bureau of Labor’s own statistics, unemployment is now higher for African-Americans, Hispanics, women and veterans than when Trump took office. • We are not grateful for the third consecutive year in which there are recorded increases in people without healthcare coverage. This is due, at least in part, to the cancellation of the health care mandate and the Trump administration’s determination to dismantle the Affordable Care Act. • We are not grateful for the divisive and racialized rhetoric that ignores the shameful history of racism in the United States, fails to repudiate both violence and racism, and empowers white nationalists. • We are not grateful for withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal, which was a significant effort by six powers (not just the U.S.) to make the world safer, or the withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement since global climate change is a fact and action must be taken to mitigate the damage caused by climate change. • We are not grateful for the humanitarian crisis unfolding on the Mexican side of the border where thousands of migrants are forced to wait in unsafe and unsanitary camps while their asylum applications are processed. • We are not grateful for the corruption and self-dealing that marked the Trump family’s time in the White House. • We are not grateful for a more unstable and volatile Middle East with Israel empowered by the Trump administration’s actions and with any hope of cooperation with Iran scuttled. • We are not grateful for a leader who insults our historic allies and praises dictators.

We would like to emphasize that this letter is intended in the spirit of open dialogue. We live in a democracy in which opposing viewpoints are expected and play a critical role in our civic discourse. It is outright dangerous when one political party cannot acknowledge its loss in a national election and move on. We citizens need to respect the democratic process (even when our side loses) and listen to each other. ridget McGraw, Solange DeSantis and Franklin Velazquez, B Mamaroneck

Flipping the script LIVE MIKE Mike Smith

I hate to say it, but Patrick Mahomes’ star might be on borrowed time. With a convincing win over the Buffalo Bills in Sunday’s AFC Championship game, the 25-year-old Chiefs quarterback finds himself on the precipice of a second-straight Super Bowl title. If he leads his team to victory in Super Bowl LV, that win would certainly cement his spot as the most exciting and popular young player in the NFL today. But it may also start the countdown to when football fans turn on the electric signal caller. The American public is nothing if not fickle. We are quick to lionize our celebrities, sports figures in particular, but we also seem to take a perverse pleasure in their failings once they reach a certain level of superstardom. It’s easy to be reminded of that fact over the last few weeks,

while tuning into the HBO documentary about the rise, and fall— and potential rise again? —of Tiger Woods. Woods was thrust into the media limelight at a young age and essentially deified by a sports media machine that was intent on portraying him as a global icon that transcended the world of professional golf. But when Tiger’s life began to unravel—both on and off the course—those same media outlets giddily chronicled his downfall, well aware that while the creation of an American hero might make for good journalism, the tearing down of those myths are ultimately what drives page views. It’s hard not to recognize that same pattern with regards to Mahomes’ Super Bowl LV opponent, Tom Brady. There was a time when Brady was simply a fresh-faced, second-year player who led his team to an improbably Super Bowl XXXVI victory over the heavily favored Rams. As Brady’s career rolled on, he racked up individual awards and

Lombardi trophies, staking his claim to potentially being the greatest quarterback the NFL has ever seen. At least early on, most people seemed to like Brady; he was a good-looking kid who had been overlooked by NFL scouts due to a perceived lack of athleticism and was now making good on that slight. It was the quintessential American tale of hard work and intelligence leading??]]]]] But as Brady continued to win, that narrative grew stale. People—at least those outside of New England—became tired of the continued success of Brady and the Patriots and began to cast him as a villain. And when cheating scandals, such as Deflategate, reared their heads, NFL viewers and pundits alike where quick to pile on Brady, questioning whether or not his spot among football royalty was nothing more than a sham. So, on Feb.6 we’ll watch as Brady—now 42—squares off against the heir-apparent in

Mahomes. And even though Mahomes seems to be everything one could want in a sports hero— affable and uniquely aware of the responsibilities that come with his super stardom. But that said, I wouldn’t be surprised if, over the next two weeks, we’ll start to see the narratives turn once again. This game might well be re-contextualized as the grizzled old veteran (Brady) trying to stave off both father time and the young upstart to win one last title. And if Mahomes denies the last generation’s icon one last victory and wins his second straight title, it won’t be long before sports fans start look for the next great player to eventually unseat the Kansas City quarterback. Because if there’s one thing the American public loves more than seeing a celebrity fall, it’s a good redemption arc. But Mahomes shouldn’t worry. If he sticks around long enough, the people should eventually come back around. They always do.

Positive signs for high-risk sports By MIKE SMITH Sports Editor After months of uncertainty regarding the viability of some high school sports in New York State, student-athletes had reason for optimism last week when Gov. Andrew Cuomo, a Democrat, announced that high-risk scholastic and recreational sports could begin as early as Feb. 1, pending approval by local county health officials. Cuomo’s Jan. 22 announcement paved the way for winter sports—including basketball, ice hockey and wrestling—that had been placed in a statewide holding pattern since the start of the winter season on Jan. 11. While low-risk sports such as bowling and indoor track have been permitted to begin their seasons, “high risk” sports have been barred from interscholastic play and limited to socially-distanced, non-contact training activities over the last several weeks. “Effective February 1, 2021, participants in higher risk sports and recreation activities may partake in other types of play, including competitions and tournaments, only as permitted by the respective local health authorities,” Cuomo’s statement read. The announcement comes on the heels of a flurry of increased pressure from student-athletes and coaches from around the state who have organized extensive letter-writing campaigns in order to petition elected officials to re-consider the ban on highrisk sports. Cuomo’s acquiescence to local voices on orchestrating the restart means that the plan for high-risk sports will ultimately be dependent upon communication between athletic directors, government officials and Section I executives. Westchester County Executive George Latimer, a Democrat, expressed excitement over the possibility of being able to provide a sports season for local high schoolers. “[We are] working with other County Executives in the Hudson Valley for a joint announcement for HS sports,” he tweeted. “We’re all in Section One together.” There are still questions regarding potential restarts, as safety protocols and scheduling

obstacles remain regarding highrisk winter sports. Currently, the winter sports schedule is scheduled to run until March 1, at which point the Fall 2 season will be implemented, allowing those student-athletes who were unable to participate in high-risk sports in the fall—including football and volleyball—to have a shortened spring campaign. Section I executive director Todd Santabarbara has scheduled a meeting with his executive committee for Jan. 25, and hopes to have more information soon. The committee will be considering local COVID-19 infection rates, the ability to comply with safety guidelines by member school districts and the added risk of a newly-discovered strain of the coronavirus as it mulls over plans.

SPORTS

But even though it will be up to these local leaders to hammer out the plans for a safe restart, officials—like New York State Public High School Athletics Association Executive Director Dr. Robert Zayas—maintain that the only path is through student-athletes holding themselves accountable for behavior that might threaten their chance to compete this year. “Student-athletes, we have received authorization to start all sports seasons; how we finish the seasons will be up to you,” he said. “Please be smart, avoid social gatherings, wear your mask, be role models, listen to your coaches & parents. So excited for you to have a season.” CONTACT: sports@hometwn.com
