Governor Cuomo Updates New Yorkers on State Vaccination Program

206,178 Doses Administered in the Last 24 Hours

More than 1.4 Million Doses Administered Over Past Seven Days

More Than 1 in 3 New Yorkers Have Received at Least One Dose

More Than 1 in 5 Are Now Fully Vaccinated

Vaccine Dashboard Will Update Daily to Provide Updates on the State's Vaccine Program; Go to ny.gov/vaccinetracker

Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today updated New Yorkers on the state's vaccination program. 206,178 doses have been administered across the state's vast distribution network in the last 24 hours, and more than 1.4 million doses have been administered over the past seven days.

"New York is increasing its testing, increasing its vaccination efforts and making sure vaccines are available, free and equitable. Today, every New Yorker 16 and older is eligible for a vaccine," Governor Cuomo said. "Our ongoing goals are getting the supply from Washington, having the distribution network and then convincing New Yorkers of the need to roll up their sleeves and get vaccinated. We've set up mass vaccination sites across the state to distribute the vaccine efficiently, but we also want to make sure the process is equitable, so we've set up smaller sites in nursing homes, public housing, communities of color, and houses of worship. New York is reaching the point where the tall straw is going to be getting New Yorkers to step up, make the appointment and understand that everybody has to get vaccinated to reach herd immunity. This is safe - over 10 million New Yorkers have taken the vaccine - and it's your citizen duty to take the vaccine."

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.

The 'Am I Eligible' screening tool has been updated for individuals with comorbidities and underlying conditions with new appointments released on a rolling basis over the next weeks. New Yorkers can use the following to show they are eligible:

  • Doctor's letter, or
  • Medical information evidencing comorbidity, or
  • Signed certification

New Yorkers seeking to determine eligibility and schedule an appointment at a state-run mass vaccination site, can visit the 'Am I Eligible' 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.

The COVID-19 Vaccine Tracker Dashboard 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.

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 [email protected]. 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.
