As the new COVID-19 vaccine becomes available for the 2024-25 season, Gov. Kathy Hochul encourages eligible New Yorkers, particularly those 65 and older, to get vaccinated.
With the recent approval of Pfizer, Moderna, and Novavax vaccines by the FDA, the CDC has initiated shipments to healthcare providers and pharmacies, aiming to enhance public vaccination efforts.
Under the Affordable Care Act, the new COVID-19 vaccines are covered without cost-sharing for most private insurance, Medicare, and Medicaid, ensuring access for all residents.
In response to past reports of deaths in nursing homes, the Department of Health has emphasized vaccination and implemented infection control measures to safeguard residents and staff.
