Saratoga County recently received an allotment of COVID-19 vaccine and didn’t have a clue what to do with it. At a time when people throughout the nation are desperately seeking the vaccine, the powers that be in Saratoga County were caught flatfooted. It has been one year since the coronavirus has been declared a worldwide pandemic. We have been assured by government at every level that procedures are in place to immediately administer the vaccine when and where it is allocated. There are no answers as to who, if anyone, even received this vaccine.  Questions directed to Saratoga County Commissioner of Public Health Daniel Kuhles have gone unanswered. Reporters were told to submit all inquiries to a public relations agency. Really? This level of malfeasance deserves wholesale firings and resignations of those responsible.
