Cuomo has updated New Yorkers on the state's vaccination program. 139,416 doses have been administered across the state's vast distribution network in the last 24 hours, and more than 1.1 million doses have been administered over the past seven days. The week 19 allocation of 1,245,960 first and second doses is expected to finish arriving today.
"Our providers are working around the clock to get more shots into arms, and the best way we can support them is by getting vaccinated and continuing to practice the safe behaviors we know will help defeat COVID once and for all," Governor Cuomo said. "The momentum is on our side and to keep our progress moving in the right direction, we have not only continued to expand access to the vaccine, but we are working hard every day to fight hesitancy as well. We will win the war against this virus, but we can only do it if we work together as one New York community."
