 Governor Kathy Hochul today updated New Yorkers on the state's progress combating COVID-19.

"More New Yorkers are taking the vaccines and driving our vaccination rate up, but that's no excuse to get complacent—we need to improve our vaccination rate to defeat this pandemic for good," Governor Hochul said. "We're taking action to keep New York's children, state employees and medical workers safe, but it's the vaccination rate that's ultimately going to determine whether we end the COVID-19 pandemic. Every single eligible New Yorker needs to get vaccinated right away to keep our families, friends and communities safe."
