LOWVILLE, N.Y. (WWNY) - New York state is a step closer to getting COVID-19 vaccines into the arms of those who need it most. On Monday, that list of eligible people got bigger. But, there are some complications along the way.
Lewis County Manager Ryan Piche says the COVID-19 vaccine has the potential to be the “weapon to end the war.”
On Monday, more people became eligible to receive it.
“We know those 75 and above are most at risk. We know people that are in schools every day with students coming in and out, those folks are at risk. Police who are going in and out of homes and in and out of vehicles with the public, those people are at risk,” said Piche.
