What the record shows · Dec 23, 2020

The Division of Emergency Management's own 2020 review, quoting Director Moskowitz, says it opened the first state-supported COVID-19 testing sites in March 2020, ran more than 85 at the peak, was coordinating statewide vaccine distribution by December, and led the state's response to hurricanes Isaias, Laura, Sally and Zeta. The agency named his successor after he resigned in 2021.

Limit: The record is the agency's account of its own work while he ran it. The meals figure was not found in the records read.
