Delayed shipments have put our entire vaccination effort at a standstill.

The City gets its supply from the state.
The state says their shipments were delayed this week due to the winter storms impacting much of the country.
Governor Cuomo said Friday, "Every dose that should have shipped on Monday was held back, and only a limited number of Pfizer vaccines left shipping facilities on Tuesday and Wednesday."
Mayor Bill de Blasio said he wants to cut Cuomo out of the process and get the vaccine shipped directly to the city.
