Starting today, ALL New Yorkers ages 16 and up are eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine! You can get vaccinated regardless of citizenship status, health coverage and employment. To get an appointment, all you need is any ID(s) that verifies your age and N.Y. State residency.
TIPS TO LOCK IN YOUR APPOINTMENT:
β° Schedule time to check for vaccine appointments at different intervals throughout the day.
β° If you don't see any available appointments, keep refreshing the page; new appointments open up frequently and suddenly, so be persistent!
β° Don't wait for an appointment to open up in your neighborhood. It'll be worth it to commute for an earlier appointment.
β° Ask friends and family to monitor vaccine finder websites during times you are unable.
AFTER YOU'RE FULLY VACCINATED:
π You can register for the
New York State Excelsior Pass, a digital document that verifies you've been vaccinated so you can participate in or attend a range of in-person events that are now re-opening!
