We have made remarkable progress and we continue to be on a good trajectory - and we should all be proud of that," Governor Cuomo said. "We still have one big job before us, and that is to continue making sure the vaccine is available to every New Yorker and getting more shots into people's arms. If you still need to get vaccinated, I urge you to do so quickly."
