 Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today updated New Yorkers on the state's vaccination program. 99,554 doses have been administered across the state's vast distribution network in the last 24 hours, and 776,101 doses have been administered statewide over the past seven days.

"New Yorkers have shown incredible resilience and discipline throughout this pandemic, and we need them to take the next step and get vaccinated to defeat this virus once and for all. Our ability to rebuild New York, reinvigorate the economy and put people back to work depends on it," Governor Cuomo said. "We're taking action to increase the number of shots in arms across the state by offering numerous incentives, while continuing to open pop-up sites to ensure access for all. The vaccine is the weapon that will win this war and I urge everyone to get vaccinated not just for themselves, but for their fellow New Yorkers. That is the only way we can finally put this pandemic behind us." 

All New York State mass vaccination sites are now open to eligible New Yorkers for walk-in vaccination on a first come first serve basis. The walk-in appointments are reserved for first doses only with second doses to be scheduled automatically after administration of the initial shot. In addition, all vaccine providers are encouraged to allow walk-in appointments for eligible New Yorkers. People who would prefer to schedule an appointment at a state-run mass vaccination site can do so on the Am I Eligible App or by calling 1-833-NYS-4-VAX. People may also contact their local health department, pharmacy, doctor or hospital to schedule appointments where vaccines are available, or visit vaccines.gov to find information on vaccine appointments near them.
