A family s holiday party in Milmont Park, Delaware County, turned out to be its own superspreader event. I remember the first time I went to Elmhurst Hospital and heard the stories from the doctors and nurses of how shocked they were, it was like a thief in the night, just literally the way of imagining how much damage how much pain could be caused, de Blasio said.
In the past year, there s never been a national period of mourning until Tuesday night.
In the twilight of a whole era in American politics, President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris devoted this night to the victims of COVID.
NEW YORK CITY (WABC) Mayor Bill de Blasio said that Moderna s vaccine deliveries have been delayed. As a result of an already existing shortage and the Moderna delay, the NYPD is halting first dose vaccinations. Effective immediately, due to a statewide shortage, the department will temporarily cease the first dose of distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine, said an internal message distributed to officers Wednesday morning.
The department started vaccinating officers Monday, and vaccinated 12,000 officers in the first four days alone.
Officers who already got the first shots will be able to get their second shots three weeks afterward.
The FDNY said they would be following suit and also halting first dose vaccinations starting on 1/25. The FDNY said it has first dose appointments booked through 1/24. Second dose appointments began Wednesday. Second dose appointments were expected to continue past 1/24.
