The state-run Dome Arena site is allowing walk-ins only for those 60 and older.
The news comes as providers across the region cite increasing difficulty in filling appointments, leading to a sharp drop in the vaccine allotted to the Finger Lakes region over the past two weeks.
Area hospitals have requested markedly fewer doses, officials said, fueling the falloff. The resulting allotment of 23,910 doses is the smallest shipment since mid-February, and is down from an average 37,000 weekly in the two months since.
“Even though the light at the end of the tunnel is brighter now … it is clear the initial enthusiasm for the vaccine is beginning to wane,” said Monroe County Public Health Commissioner Dr. Michael Mendoza.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WHEC) Supply is finally starting to meet demand when it comes to vaccines in Monroe County. The governor s office announced Wednesday that anyone 60 or older won t even need an appointment and can walk right into any state-run vaccine sites as of Friday.
Lifespan s Vice President of Marketing and Communications Mary Rose McBride says as of April 15, their records show that 67% of our older adults in Monroe County have been fully vaccinated and that this news from the governor s office will only increase those numbers. Obviously we still want it to be more, but the governor s invitation for 60 and older can just walk into a pop-up site is great information,” McBride said.
