Update on COVID-19 Vaccinations in New York City

Dear Neighbor,

As we continue to see high rates of COVID-19 diagnoses throughout New York City, we must continue to follow current pandemic guidelines to protect ourselves and our loved ones. Free COVID-19 testing is still available at several locations throughout the city, and we are encouraging residents to continue to get tested.

A COVID-19 Vaccination Hub opened on Monday in the Bronx on 4006 3rd Avenue offering 24/7 service by appointment only. People ages 65 and older, teachers and education workers, first responders, public safety workers, healthcare workers with direct patient contact and staff, funeral workers, emergency medical services workers, dentists and staff, pharmacists and pharmacy aids, public health workers, public transit workers and anyone previously covered in Phase A are eligible to receive the vaccine.

You can click HERE or call 877- VAX- 4NYC for more information on this site and other city vaccination hubs. No insurance is needed, and you can receive the vaccine regardless of your immigration status. You can also text "COVID" to 692692 to receive COVID-19 vaccine updates.

It is up to all of us to keep each other safe, and we must work together to eliminate this virus. Please share this information with your friends, family, and neighbors and encourage them to get tested today.
