Vaccine distribution

About 900 New Hampshire health care workers have been vaccinated against the coronavirus so far, but the state isn’t getting as many doses as it initially expected, state officials said Thursday. https://www.mychemicalromance.com/news/watch-monster-hunter-2020-full-movie-online-free-3623486 

Beth Daly, chief of the state Bureau of Infectious Disease Control, said 3,135 doses of the Pfizer vaccine have been distributed to hospitals this week, and in the last two days, 901 workers have been vaccinated. About 100,000 health care workers, residents of long-term care facilities and first responders are in the high-priority group for vaccinations, and those inoculations should be completed by the end of January, said Gov. Chris Sununu. https://www.mychemicalromance.com/news/full-watch-monster-hunter-2020-full-movie-hd-online-free-3623491

The state had expected to start with about 12,000 doses from Pfizer by next week, but that has been reduced to about 9,000, he said. https://www.mychemicalromance.com/news/123movies-watch-monster-hunter-2020-full-movie-online-free-hd-download-3623496

“Everybody gets their pro rata share by state, so New Hampshire isn’t treated any differently than any other state, but because of production and how they’re managing their production, unfortunately at least for the next couple weeks, it’s going to come in a little short of what we were originally told,” he said. “Still, 9,000 doses, we’ll take it and use it.” https://www.mychemicalromance.com/news/watch-monster-hunter-2020-full-movie-online-free-3623501

Officials in numerous states said they are facing the same situation. Pfizer, however, issued a statement saying it is not having any production issues with the vaccine and no shipments are on hold or delayed.

Federal aid https://www.mychemicalromance.com/news/putlocker-uhd-watch-monster-hunter-online-2020-3623506

With two weeks left of the year, New Hampshire is spending its $2.5 billion in virus relief aid “almost down to the penny,” Sununu said Thursday.

States must return any money they don’t spend by Dec. 31. With some initial allocations resulting in lapsed funds – for example, only $15 million of the $50 million earmarked for broadband projects has been spent – the state announced several new appropriations. The university system of New Hampshire will be getting $4 million to support its virus testing operation, hospitals hard hit by the pandemic will get an additional $7 million and nonprofit organizations will get $12 million to help defray the cost of unemployment insurance, Sununu said. https://www.mychemicalromance.com/news/full-watch-monster-hunter-2020-free-hd-3623511

“We’ve tried to schedule this out, and I think the team did a great job of making sure we had these funds available all the way to the end of the year,” he said.

Outdoor dining

Outdoor dining will return to Portsmouth on March 1, weather permitting.

The city council voted unanimously on the date Monday, saying it was giving struggling restaurants “a small ounce of predictability” by guaranteeing the return of outdoor dining.

Officials also said they expect to extend the city’s mask mandate for public areas until June 1.

Restaurants in New Hampshire were allowed to open to outdoor dining in May after being limited to takeout and delivery. Many stopped outdoor dining by the end of November.

Acting speaker: House not prepared to operate remotely

meeting or hybrid situation, the acting House speaker said.

Sherman Packard, R-Londonderry, expressed his opinion in a message in the House calendar on Friday after talking to staff.

Packard said a drive-in style meeting that's under consideration for January “will satisfy our need to meet in-person for the purpose of balloting and voting. It will dramatically reduce or even eliminate the need to interact with each other. We will be protected from unnecessary risk and from the elements by our vehicles, and we will meet or exceed every CDC and Public Health recommendation."

Packard is acting speaker of the 400-member, Republican-majority House.

Democrats have advocated that legislators meet virtually, and the state Supreme Court found that holding House sessions remotely would not violate a constitutional provision about what constitutes a quorum.

“Representative Packard and I both have seen the effectiveness and accessibility of meeting remotely, as recently as this week we we met together on Zoom with the House Rules Committee," Democratic Leader Renny Cushing, of Hampton, said in a statement Friday. He also noted the court ruling, saying that meeting remotely is a “legal and effective way to continue operating while the danger of the COVID-19 pandemic persists."

The House had been meeting at the University of New Hampshire's ice arena to allow for greater social distancing during the coronavirus pandemic. Packard has discussed meeting at a UNH parking lot.
