Facing mounting criticism, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) on Friday said the state will expand COVID-19 vaccination eligibility to a wider range of the public, including those over the age of 75 and first responders.
Cuomo has been under fire for rigidly adhering to prioritizing health workers and nursing homes, despite numerous instances of vaccine doses sitting unused in freezers or even being thrown out.
Even with a limited supply of vaccines from the federal government, New York’s vaccination rollout has been slow. Cuomo blamed hospitals, threatening to fine them and remove doses if they didn’t vaccinate health workers fast enough.
Beginning Monday, Cuomo now says anyone in phase “1B” will be allowed to make an appointment to be vaccinated.
He said providers need to continue to prioritize health workers first, so supply will be limited, but teachers, first responders, transportation workers and people aged 75 and older will be eligible.

Trump is not the problem. Cuomo is. Cuomo murdered 100’s, if not thousands, of nursing home patients when he sent them back to their deaths. The corrupt biased DNC controlled media won’t touch this story with a 10 foot pole. The 5th column, the media, is aiding and abetting the killer Cuomo. Why Matzav.com would censor comments criticizing Cuomo, is beyond me.
but Trump is Teflon coated. the silver spooned brat who never took blame for one negative thing in his life! this whole presidency has been “not my fault” “not my fault”
The always-blame-everyone-else Governor is finally being blamed for his own incompetence by his own cronies.
Got to love politics, where one outdoes the other in barking and biting game.
too little too late.
he has blood on his hands.
this move should have been made weeks ago.
And it would take 3 months. Great
Unfortuanately one reason that there are vaccines not getting used is that many healthcare workers are refusing to be vaccinated. 🙁
Because if they take it before every Black gets one, they will be labeled a R A C I S T by our lovely priviliged WHITE Governor.
Why should they? They know that thousands have been injured and died from this Deep State Depopulation vaccine which mainstream covers up, including idiotic doctors and nurses.
Hey bigmouth, have you and your family taken it already? FYI “healthcare workers” have nothing to with health. They’re politicians like other ministers and never studied medicine.
if they don’t believe in medicine they have no business administering medicine! bunch of Neanderthals!
