“New York State is rapidly expanding our networks and capabilities to get as many New Yorkers vaccinated as fast as our supply allows,” Governor Cuomo said. “The new vaccine sites across the State will expedite our distribution to get our most vulnerable New Yorkers vaccinated efficiently.

“If the County Center can be used for vaccinations, if those vaccinations can help us stop the hemorrhaging of deaths that we’ve had than I think it’s a good use,” said Westchester County Executive George Latimer.
