🌱 East Hampton Daily: Watch 'In It for the Long Haul' + Testing

Good day, people of East Hampton! It's me again, Diane Witek, your host of the East Hampton Daily. Here are the top 4 stories in East Hampton today.

First, today's weather:

Partly sunny. High: 42, low: 37.

Here are the top stories today in East Hampton:

1. Stony Brook Medicine’s Post-COVID Clinic will present “Post-COVID: In It for the Long Haul.” This is a livestream event that will examine long-term effects and approaches to care, on Tuesday at 4:45 p.m. The discussion will stream on Facebook Live, on the Post-COVID Clinic's website, and on its YouTube channel. (East Hampton Star)
2. Two Purriful forces have joined! Both the Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons (ARF) and Bideawee have been battling the same issue separately using the Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) approach, the most humane and effective way to manage the community (feral) cat population. Recently, ARF Hamptons announced a partnership with Bideawee to help feral cats on Eastern Long Island. On Thursday, ARF traveled west to Bideawee’s Westhampton facility for the first of what will be monthly Spay/Neuter Clinics to address the feral cat population in Suffolk County. (ARF)
3. East Hampton area shelters have just what you are looking for in a pet. There are thousands of potential pets without a home. This is a great way to add a fluffy ball of four-legged love and affection to your family. Consider Natala, who is waiting patiently for you. (East Hampton Patch)
4. COVID-19 testing made available by CareOne Concierge will be moving, as of Monday, Dec. 20, from the Town Hall campus on Pantigo Road in East Hampton to the EH Center for Humanity (former CDCH school) at 110 Stephen Hand's Path in Wainscott. (Press Release Desk)
