“I’ll be upfront: I believe it’s up to the individual, especially at this point,” said Vern Gove, chairman of the county board and its executive committee, at an EC meeting Monday afternoon. He pointed to new guidance from the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention — mischaracterizing some of it — that says people who are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 can gather indoors with other vaccinated people.

Vern keeps a tight clamp on his wallet, although he has recently donated to 2 GOP candidates.
