The pandemic has been incredibly challenging for our families. COVID-19 has forced all of us to make significant changes in our daily routines and adjust to a new normal. When cases spiked in the spring and again this winter, New Yorkers banded together to slow the spread of coronavirus and helped bring our infection rates down dramatically.
As vaccine distribution continues to ramp up, we can begin to see the light at the end of tunnel after a year of hardship and sacrifice. While many of us may understandably be feeling fatigued from an extended period of social distancing, we must continue following safety guidelines to protect vulnerable populations and save lives To see if you’re currently eligible to receive a COVID-19 vaccine, visit am-i-eligible.covid19vaccine.health.ny.gov.
Be responsible. Be smart. Be safe.
