The city’s Health and Hospitals system deployed three minibuses on Tuesday to deliver COVID-19 vaccines and other health care to New Yorkers dealing with street homelessness.
Medical personnel set up in Midtown, the Upper West Side, and Washington Heights, where they’ll administer Johnson & Johnson shots. City and state officials said Saturday they’d resume the one-dose option after federal regulators lifted a two-week pause.
“For people that are living on the street in New York City, we want every New Yorker to have the same, equal chance to get vaccinated,” said Dr. Ted Long, the head of the Test & Trace Corps at Health + Hospitals. “We re going to do everything in our power including driving it right up to where you are.”

More than a dozen local non-profits are benefiting from the generosity of those in Acadiana.
Rummage for a Reason, held Saturday in Lafayette, gave people a chance to shop for interesting items while helping organizations raise a few extra dollars.
Some of the participating non-profits included Big Brother Big Sister of Acadiana, Foster the Love, Maddie s Footprints, Healing House, SpayNation/Wild Cat Foundation, and Camp Bon Coeur.
But what did the organizations have to rummage through?
Foster the Love, which provides education and real-life assistance to families in the foster care system, runs a Community Closet, and so had various clothing items on display.
