“Since the vaccination rollout began in January, we have administered over 40,000 doses of either Moderna, Pfizer, or the Johnson & Johnson vaccine to anyone who lives, works, or studies in the City of Bayonne,” O’Reilly said during Mayor Jimmy Davis’ COVID-19 update yesterday.
“This incredible feat has taken countless hours, by many dedicated people, to show we’ll do everything we can to protect our city. The Bayonne Department of Health, under Mayor Davis, has remained committed to providing vaccine to anyone who wants it.”
