Letter: ‘Thank You’ to New Canaan Health Department

More

As we prepare for Thanksgiving, give a special thanks to the New Canaan Health Department.

I want to give a special shout out to Jenn Eielson, and the entire healthcare team in New Canaan (school nurses, EMT’s, doctors, CERT and numerous volunteers) for an incredibly well managed and positive experience last Thursday afternoon and evening at the High School. I am talking about the mass vaccination that took place for 1,000 kids aged 5 to11.

The reality that 1,000 doses were administered in New Canaan, within a week of authorization, is a real testament to the health team New Canaan has, and the town in general. In the entire U.S. around 1 million doses had been administered to that age group when the New Canaan kids got their shots, so this town is definitely over performing.

We can all be full of thanks that we live in a town that can put something like this together, and execute with such professionalism as well as care for the kids who attended.

  1. Giacomo – You always find the right words. Yes – a HUGE THANK YOU and much gratitude. My 9 year old couldn’t wait and she is our youngest so we are on our way to a fully vaccinated family and with such ease. It was a “party scene” on Thursday at the clinic – the kids were super enthused. A joy of sights for all our eyes and hearts.

    THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!
