— Vaccine Dashboard Will Update Daily to Provide Updates on the State’s Vaccine Program; visit <\/span>ny.gov\/vaccinetracker<\/a> —<\/span> <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Governor Andrew M. Cuomo announced on Monday a new expansion of COVID-19 vaccine eligibility in New York. Beginning Tuesday, March 30 at 8 a.m., all New Yorkers 30 years of age and older will be eligible to receive the vaccine. Beginning April 6, universal eligibility goes into effect and all New Yorkers 16 years of age and older will be eligible to receive the vaccine.  <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, the Governor announced more than 2 million total COVID-19 vaccine doses have been administered at New York State-run and FEMA-assisted mass vaccination sites. Statewide, more than 9 million total doses have been administered across all vaccination sites. 171,419 doses have been administered across the state’s vast distribution network in the last 24 hours, and more than 1.3 million doses have been administered over the past seven days. Delivery of the week 16 allocation begins mid-week. <\/span><\/p>\n

  <\/span><\/p>\n

“Today we take a monumental step forward in the fight to beat COVID,” Governor Cuomo said, adding, “Beginning March 30, all New Yorkers age 30 or older will be able to be vaccinated, and all New Yorkers age 16 or older will be eligible on April 6, well ahead of the May 1 deadline set by the White House. <\/span>As we continue to expand eligibility, New York will double down on making the vaccine accessible for every community to ensure <\/span>equity, particularly for communities of color who are too often left behind. We can see the light at the end of the tunnel, but until we get there it is more important than ever for each and every New Yorker to wear a mask, socially distance and follow all safety guidelines.”<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

New York’s vast distribution network and large population of eligible individuals still far exceed the supply coming from the federal government. Due to limited supply, New Yorkers are encouraged to remain patient and are advised not to show up at vaccination sites without an appointment.                              <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>‘Am I Eligible’ <\/span><\/a>screening tool has been updated for individuals with co-morbidities and underlying conditions with new appointments released on a rolling basis over the next few weeks. New Yorkers can use the following to show they are eligible:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00b7     Doctor’s letter, or<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00b7     Medical information evidencing comorbidity, or<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00b7     Signed certification      <\/span><\/p>\n

New Yorkers seeking to determine eligibility and schedule an appointment at a state-run mass vaccination site, can visit the<\/span> <\/span>‘Am I Eligible’ <\/span><\/a>website. New Yorkers may also call their local health department, pharmacy, doctor, or hospital for additional information and to schedule appointments where vaccines are available.                <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>COVID-19 Vaccine Tracker Dashboard <\/span><\/a>is available to update New Yorkers on the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine. The New York State Department of Health requires vaccinating facilities to report all COVID-19 vaccine administration data within 24 hours; the vaccine administration data on the dashboard is updated daily to reflect the most up-to-date metrics in the state’s vaccination effort.          <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

New Yorkers who suspect fraud in the vaccine distribution process can now call 833-VAX-SCAM (833-829-7226) toll-free or email the state Department of Health at<\/span> <\/span>STOPVAXFRAUD@health.ny.gov<\/span><\/a>. Hotline staff will route complaints to the appropriate investigative agencies to ensure New Yorkers are not being taken advantage of as the State works to vaccinate the entire eligible population. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
