As you know, it has been difficult getting appointments for vaccines, and New York is among the many states experiencing supply shortages. Here is the latest info we have received from Albany.... You can find information about the state's vaccine distribution program on http://www.ny.gov/vaccine. Under the "Distribution Plan" tab is where you will find the list of eligible groups. This list will continue to be updated as eligibility is expanded. On this website, you will also... find the "Check Your Eligibility" tool, which residents can use to make appointments as state-operated vaccine sites. The direct link can be found here: https://am-i-eligible.covid19vaccine.health.ny.gov/. On the site, there is also a tab for the "Vaccine Tracker." The tracker shows how much vaccine doses NYS has received from the federal government, how many first doses have been administered, and how many second doses have been administered. The direct link to this tracker can be found here: https://covid19vaccine.health.ny.gov/covid-19-vaccine-track.
