STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — With the race to vaccinate hospital staff well underway, the next steps in the road to conduct coronavirus (COVID-19) immunizations across Staten Island remains a process fraught with questions and technical hurdles that could stymie the effort.
“It’s quite convoluted and we’re working layer by layer to get some clarity,” said Borough President James Oddo. “I’m not saying this is simple, but the science of creating the vaccine shouldn’t be easier in retrospect than the logistics and the people component.”
