No one should ever pay for a vaccination, he said. When we see that that s happening or someone is asking you for money . that s illegal and we want to stop it. And if it s systemic, we want to root it out.
Latimer is encouraging anyone who may have paid to get a vaccine to contact county officials, and said the county will work to make sure victims are reimbursed. With all New York residents age 16 and older now eligible, he wants to make sure no more residents are told to hand over cash to get the vaccine. If you have gotten a vaccine and you paid to get it, then we want to know where did you get that vaccine, when did you go. Give us the date, time . and the location and we will have an investigator investigate that, Latimer said. Now we are trying to get it into as many arms as we can, that s an urgent mission, and then to find that somebody out there is trying to manipulate that mission to make a buck, because people are vulnerable. That s not acceptable.

of the New York Knicks Executive Team participated in a public service announcement put together by Westchester County encouraging people to get the COVID-19 vaccine.
Westchester County Executive George Latimer said: “I want to thank the New York Knicks and MSG for helping us show the public that the COVID-19 vaccines are safe. This latest PSA is all about normalizing and encouraging the vaccine process – which is open now to most New Yorkers. All of us miss being able to go to a Knicks game – but getting vaccinated is another step on the road to packing the stands and cheering our hometown team on again.”
