ALBANY, N.Y. (WKBW) — New York Governor Andrew Cuomo announced 16 New York State mass vaccination sites will accept walk-in appointments for those 60 and older starting Friday.
The state says it will set aside a vaccine allocation to facilitate this expanded access. There may be a wait at some sites and all proof of identity and insurance information, if applicable, will be needed.
"Every day our state moves closer to a post-pandemic future by vaccinating more New Yorkers, and we're building on that momentum by making it easier for our residents to get vaccinated, expanding eligibility and opening new vaccination sites across the state," Governor Cuomo said. "We're taking that effort a step further and making the vaccine more accessible to older New Yorkers by allowing walk-ins to get vaccinated at 16 mass vaccination sites. A robust vaccination program is vitally important to the public health, and we're working 24/7 to get shots in arms, protect New Yorkers and move the state forward."
