Governor Hochul Updates New Yorkers on State's Progress Combating COVID-19 - SEPTEMBER 15, 2021

 

52,878 Vaccine Doses Administered Over Last 24 Hours  

31 COVID-19 Deaths Statewide Yesterday   


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

"While breakthrough infections are possible, those who are vaccinated are much less likely to experience the harshest effects of COVID if they do contract it, and are even less likely to die from the virus," Governor Hochul said. "We are approaching the season of gatherings and there's no reason why those who have gotten their vaccine should have to sacrifice the fun of upcoming events. Wear masks to avoid breakthrough infections, wash your hands, and if you remain unvaccinated, take advantage of ongoing incentive programs and get yours today."
