PLATTSBURGH â Assemblyman D. Billy Jones, D-Chateaugay Lake, last week called on New York to mimic other northern border states now helping to vaccinate Canadian neighbors.
âNot only is it goodwill,â Jones said, âbut itâs a start to getting this border open â and we can do it.â
Jones highlighted recent efforts of North Dakota and Michigan, saying the two Midwestern states were inoculating essential workers from the Great White North.
While the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention considered such an allowable use, the New York State Department of Health has yet to allow the Empire State to use its COVID-19 vaccine supplies on foreign nationals.
