"New York is making tremendous progress in our goal to vaccinate every New Yorker while keeping the infection and hospitalization rates down, but variants of the virus remain a concern across the state," Governor Cuomo said. "It's going to take everyone working together, as individuals and in communities, to protect each other and defeat this virus once and for all.
