Change is needed now in Albany, the governor is in crisis mode, and where is the investigation of vaccine supply to political support. He better not try that on me.
“I applaud the courage of the women who have come forward. Previously, I expressed my support for the investigation being led by Attorney General Letitia James. I still believe that independent investigation must continue. But I also believe that the number and the nature of the allegations against Gov. Cuomo has made it impossible for him to govern. Gov. Cuomo should resign.”
“Amphibians contribute to a healthy, functioning ecosystem and during this time of year, road mortality poses a significant threat to forest species that migrate to woodland pools for breeding,” said DEC Commissioner Basil Seggos. “DEC is grateful to the many volunteers who venture out each year to assist salamanders and frogs that encounter roads during their migration. I encourage all New Yorkers and visitors traveling the state’s roads to be on the lookout for these vulnerable amphibians and the dedicated volunteers keeping them safe and remind our volunteers to practice social distancing to prevent the spread of COVID-19."
Amphibian Migrations and Road Crossings Project volunteers document Hudson Valley road locations where they observe migrations, record weather and traffic conditions, and identify and count the amphibians on the move. Volunteers also carefully help the amphibians to safely cross roads. Due to COVID-19, DEC’s Hudson River Estuary Program held virtual training programs in February and March for 115 participants. New volunteers can also train themselves by using materials on the project website.

Is Andrew Cuomo still Governor? Why won't he just resign now so I can announce that I will be running for governor next year.
182,584 Doses Administered Across New York State in the Last 24 Hours
More than 1 Million Doses Administered Over Past Seven Days
Vaccine Dashboard Will Update Daily to Provide Updates on the State's Vaccine Program; Go to ny.gov/vaccinetracker
Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today updated New Yorkers on the state's vaccination program. 182,584 doses have been administered across New York's vast distribution network in the last 24 hours, and more than1 million doses have been administered over the past seven days. The week 13 allocation from the federal government continues being delivered to providers for administration.
"We are seeing a lot of progress in our daily numbers in the fight against COVID, and the long-term sustainment of this hard-earned progress will depend on our efficiency in getting people vaccinated," Governor Cuomo said. "The White House has moved up dramatically the amount of vaccines available, and we are set to significantly increase our capacity for getting shots into arms - a logistical undertaking unlike anything we have done before. Our goal is to be the first COVID-safe state, and we will do that by continuing to prioritize the hard-hit communities and the most vulnerable New Yorkers that bore the brunt of COVID."
New York's vast distribution network and large population of eligible individuals still far exceed the supply coming from the federal government. Due to limited supply, New Yorkers are encouraged to remain patient and are advised not to show up at vaccination sites without an appointment.
The 'Am I Eligible' screening tool has been updated for individuals with comorbidities and underlying conditions with new appointments released on a rolling basis over the next weeks. New Yorkers can use the following to show they are eligible:
· Doctor's letter, or
· Medical information evidencing comorbidity, or
· Signed certification
