So, Napa County Supervisor Belia Ramos received her COVID vaccine weeks before she was technically allowed to according to the priority lis and guidelines. On March 4, 2021, the Board of Supervisors passed Motion 11A2. The clerk of the Board documented the following points directed by the Board as to the Fact-Finding report: “The Board of Supervisors directed the CEO to prepare a report regarding COVID Vaccination processes in Napa County. The dates of January 11 to January 29 are to be included in the report. The locations to be reviewed are the County Expo and South Campus.” The CEO was directed to engage a Third Party to prepare the report.
The Napa Register states the results very well, “Watergate it is not, but at the same time, the report does not paint a flattering portrait of Ramos. She comes off as entitled, out-of-touch and obtrusive, all charges that have been leveled against her by critics and former supporters over the years.” And let’s be clear; also, the report did show that County staff adhered to the processes they had to set up, except this one isolated time for the reasons outlined in the report.
This report is thorough.
