If the Pfizer COVID vaccine receives final approval by the FDA Friday, New York could get in a shipment of the vaccine as soon as Sunday.
The owner of Rockville Centre Pharmacy, Howard Jacobson, said he is willing to hire more staff, expand hours and even go to people s homes in order to give them the vaccine. Whatever we have to do in order to get this job done, he said.
Earlier this month, the President of the Pharmacists Society of the State of New York (PSSNY) sent a letter to New York Governor Andrew Cuomo urging him to make sure the vaccine is distributed equitably.
