NEW YORK - New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio announced Saturday that city-run vaccination sites will now offer vaccines to anyone over the age of 50 without an appointment.
Previously, the city had only been offering vaccinations without an appointment to residents who were 75 and older. Our priority for the next few months is clear: we need to vaccinate as many New Yorkers as possible, said de Blasio. By making it easier for New Yorkers 50 and older to get vaccinated, we are on our way to fully vaccinating five million New Yorkers by June.
