August 23, 2021

COVID restrictions are back in effect at the White County courthouse. Enotah Judicial Circuit Chief Judge Raymond George reinstated the protocols citing the “rapid increase” in the number of COVID-19 cases and its variants.

Judge George ordered the courthouse off-limits to anyone experiencing COVID or flu-like symptoms.

People entering the building must wear masks or face coverings and undergo a temperature check. Anyone with a temperature of 100.4 degrees or higher will not be allowed to enter. Once inside the building, people must remain socially distanced at least six feet apart.

White County courthouse employees must wear masks in public areas, according to the judge’s order.

According to data from the Georgia Department of Public Health, White County’s 2-week COVID-19 positivity rate is 26.1% up from 5.7% one month ago. There have been 451 new cases of COVID reported in White County during that same time period — 266 in the past two weeks.

FDA grants full approval of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine

August 23, 2021

Pfizer COVID vaccine — Several states, including Georgia, began vaccinating the younger age group immediately after Monday’s FDA authorization.

Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration formally approved the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. The widely anticipated decision replaces the emergency use authorization granted by the agency last December.

This is the first COVID-19 vaccine to be subject to a full review by the U.S. regulator and to get approval that puts it on par with other marketed vaccines. The Pfizer vaccine will now be marketed as Comirnaty for the prevention of COVID-19 disease in individuals 16 years of age and older.

Full FDA approval could make it easier for employers, the military, and universities to mandate vaccination and may reassure some people who are hesitant about the vaccine.

“While this and other vaccines have met the FDA’s rigorous, scientific standards for emergency use authorization, as the first FDA-approved COVID-19 vaccine, the public can be very confident that this vaccine meets the high standards for safety, effectiveness, and manufacturing quality the FDA requires of an approved product,” says Acting FDA Commissioner Dr. Janet Woodcock.

The vaccine continues to be available under emergency use authorization for 12 to 15-year-olds and for third-dose administration in some with weak immune systems.

A June poll from the Kaiser Family Foundation found that 31% of unvaccinated people said they would be more likely to get a COVID-19 vaccine once one receives full approval from the FDA, NPR reports.

“We have not lost sight that the COVID-19 public health crisis continues in the U.S. and that the public is counting on safe and effective vaccines,” says Dr. Peter Marks, director of FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research. “The public and medical community can be confident that although we approved this vaccine expeditiously, it was fully in keeping with our existing high standards for vaccines in the U.S.”

Currently, no COVID-19 vaccines are approved for use in children under 12. Trials are ongoing, Marks says.

As of Sunday, 73% of adults have had at least one dose of the Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson vaccine, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine remains under FDA review, but is expected to be approved in the near future.

Dog days of summer — (Hadley Cottingham/Now Habersham)

The hottest days of the summer are upon us, and Sunday afternoon, the City of Clarkesville set up on the green with Kona Ice, kiddie pools, homemade treats and slobbery kisses galore. The “Dog Days of Summer,” are here, and so were pooches from all over the region.

It wasn’t just Habersham dogs and their families that made it out to Clarkesville this past Sunday. Visitors from South Carolina all the way to Atlanta came out to give their canines an afternoon of playtime and goodies.

Robin and Chad Kelly, Habersham vacationers and pet parents to Grace and Fisher, took time away from home in Atlanta to take in the nature Habersham has to offer. After they found out about Clarkesville’s event, they brought out their two Golden Retrievers to make new friends and try their paw at the SouthPaws Sports Scenter’s agility course.

Mandy Hicks of Mountainside CPR offered a free canine CPR and first-aid demonstration, using the Red Cross CPR dog dummy, “CasPeR,” to show pet parents where to feel for a pulse, apply compressions and how to give mouth-to-snout breaths.

With an afternoon full of new friendships, stylish pups and adoption stories, dogs and humans alike went home all tail wags and smiles.

2 arrested after 131 mph chase in Habersham, deputies say

A biker allegedly led law enforcement on a high-speed chase through Habersham County early Monday. The chase stretched over 18 miles and at times topped speeds of 131 mph, deputies say.

Officers arrested Keandra Sanford, 26, of Lagrange after he crashed the Honda CBR 600 he was driving into the back of a patrol car.

The chase began just after midnight when 911 Dispatch notified Habersham deputies of a failed traffic stop in Hall County. A deputy there reported he attempted to stop a motorcycle with no tail lights or tag, but the biker got away.

A Habersham County deputy picked up the pursuit near Kudzu Hill, south of Duncan Bridge Road. Two other deputies joined in as the pursuit made its way up the highway into Demorest.

According to the incident report, the officers attempted multiple rolling roadblocks. The chase ended south of Talmadge Drive near Hollywood when Sanford crashed into the back of one of the patrol vehicles.

After wrecking, deputies say Sanford “bailed on foot” and ran southbound on GA 365 toward the guardrail. The officers apprehended him. Sanford reportedly refused medical treatment and was transported to the Habersham County Detention Center.

Deputies obtained warrants on Sanford for obstruction and fleeing from law enforcement. They also cited him for multiple traffic offenses including reckless driving, classes of license, following too closely, tag light requirements, tail light requirements, defective tires, speeding, and obscured tag.

According to the sheriff’s office, Sanford also has an active felony probation warrant out on him in Troup County.

Deputies also arrested Leigha Anglin Fausz, 38, of Fort Valley, Alabama, in connection with the incident.

According to a supplemental incident report Now Habersham obtained through an open records request, Fausz is Sanford’s girlfriend. She was a passenger in a van carrying five people that pulled up to the scene of the crash shortly after it happened. Deputies say Fausz appeared to be under the influence of drugs. After getting the driver’s permission to search the van, officers say they found a lunch box containing several small plastic bags of suspected meth and heroin.

Deputies charged Fausz with trafficking meth, possession with intent to distribute, and possession of drug-related objects.

As of Tuesday afternoon, both Fausz and Sanford remained in the Habersham County jail without bond.

Life in Motion: A Call to Prayer

August 23, 2021

train and community prayer — An oncoming train briefly drowned out but didn't stop the prayers pastors lifted up during the "A Call to Prayer" gathering Aug. 21, 2021, in Cornelia.

Dozens of people gathered at the Big Red Apple in downtown Cornelia on Saturday to unite in a call to prayer.

The gathering was hosted by pastors from nine Habersham County churches. The pastors have been meeting monthly for over a year, looking for ways to support one another and their community.

“It’s not just an association, it’s a movement,” Prince of Peach Church Pastor Sam Negron told Now Habersham ahead of the gathering. “It’s a movement to get our pastors together to reach our people here in Habersham County, and in other counties, but especially here.”

Negron says the goal of this pastoral movement is to bring people together, regardless of their differences, to meet the community’s needs.

“The community doesn’t owe itself to us, we owe ourselves to the community,” he says of local church leaders and congregants. “We have to be the ER to the community. We have to reach past the church walls to receive people — to show the love of God and be all about Jesus.”

Approximately 50 people attended Saturday’s gathering. Negron says another community prayer event is planned for October 16th.

Habersham to launch new burn permitting process at end of month

By

Staff Report

August 22, 2021

Habersham County is changing the way it issues burn permits.

Starting Monday, August 30, county residents will no longer have to call emergency services for permission to burn. Instead, they’ll have three options for how to obtain a permit — by phone, text, or online.

To receive the permit by phone or text, users will dial 1-844-844-2876 (BURN). Citizens will also be able to obtain a permit online at georgiaburnpermits.com.

County officials say the new method will provide greater flexibility and convenience for those wishing to burn hand-piled vegetation and yard debris.

If you’re clearing land for agriculture, silviculture, residential or commercial developments, you’ll still need to contact the country forest ranger or Georgia Forestry Commission for a permit.

The new system will not be available to everyone in the county. Those living in Cornelia, Mt.Airy, and Clarkesville must still contact their local fire departments before doing any outdoor burning.

Watch the Skies: Deneb and the Double Cluster

August 22, 2021

We’ve got another exciting week of sky watching ahead. The moon will start this week full on Sunday then gradually rise later and later each night, allowing for plenty of dark skies during the evening hours. A very few stray Perseid meteors may still be seen but Earth has pretty much fully exited the dust stream.

The Planets this Week: This week the gas giants are quickly becoming the show stoppers as far as planets go. While Venus remains the brightest high in the sky during twilight, Jupiter and Saturn are both rising as the sun sets. They reach high in the sky by 11PM and are excellent telescope objects. Mercury and Mars are both nearly invisible in the evening twilight now.

Naked Eye Object of the Week- Deneb: Deneb is the 19th brightest star in the night sky. It is part of both the “Northern Cross” asterism and the “Summer Triangle”. It is located in the constellation Cygnus the Swan. The name comes from the Arabic word for tail and comes out of a phrase that means tale of the hen. Deneb is a variable star, meaning its luminosity rises and falls. This is because it is a supergiant. Supergiant stars have exhausted their primary source of fuel- hydrogen. Once this happens they expand and become significantly hotter and brighter. Due to this, Deneb is one of the most luminous stars known- several thousand times brighter than the sun. You can catch Deneb in the western sky during the evening hours right now.

Telescope Object of the Week-Double Cluster: One of the most spectacular clusters in the night sky is now rising in the evening. It is actually two star clusters very near each other, hence it’s name: the Double Cluster. It is located just beneath last week’s object Cassiopeia. It is the brightest cluster in the sky and is easily visible to the naked eye in dark skies. Both these clusters are roughly 7500 light years away from the Earth. Both of these clusters are fairly young, only about 13 million years old each. Part of what makes them so visually stunning is that they each contain over 300 blue super-giant stars each. These are very bright and when viewed through a telescope produce a stunning starfield. The Double Cluster has been observed for thousands of years however it wasn’t determined what it was until the advent of the telescope. William Herschel was the first to classify it as two separate clusters in the early 1800’s. Interestingly, despite it’s brightness the clusters were not included in Charles Messiers catalogue of bright deep sky objects.

It’s plenty easy to find, appearing as a fuzzy patch beneath the constellation Cassiopeia, officially located inside the constellation Perseus. It can be viewed beautifully through either a pair of binoculars or a telescope of any size.

Hopefully we get away from the clouds this week and have some time to view these night sky objects!

Have a great week and watch the skies!

August 21, 2021

HALL COUNTY – District 2 Public Health has administered over 250,000 COVID-19 vaccines since vaccines became available in January 2021. This week, much of the district saw a one percent increase in vaccinations of both the fully vaccinated and individuals receiving their first dose.

The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) and the Centers of Disease Control (CDC) approved an additional Moderna and Pfizer dose for individuals who have weakened immune systems. This additional dose will require medical documentation from the individual’s provider and should indicate their immune condition.

Additionally, ACIP and the CDC are expected to approve the Moderna and Pfizer booster vaccine for the public. The expected date the health departments will begin administering the booster dose is September 20.

District 2 Public Health is opening up two additional drive-thru testing sites at Lumpkin and Franklin county health departments. Franklin County’s Mako testing site will open on Wednesday, August 25 and Lumpkin County’s Mako testing site will open on Thursday, August 26.
