Governor Cuomo Announces New York State Fairgrounds Has Second-Highest Single Day Performance of Any Vaccination Site in the Nation – ny.gov

Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced the mass vaccination site at the New York State Fairgrounds in Syracuse performed second-best in the nation from Saturday through Monday, coming in second only to the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center mass vaccination site in New York City. The site administered 9,758 doses over a 24-hour period on Monday and Tuesday, and 8,874 doses over a 24-hour period on Sunday and Monday. 156,774doses have been administered across New York’s vast distribution network in the last 24 hours, and over 1 million doses have been administered over the past seven days. The week 13 allocation from the federal government begins mid-week and is expected to finish arriving by end of day on Sunday, March 14.

 

“Our providers across the state are receiving more and more supply, and thanks to our efficient infrastructure, they are breaking records with unprecedented numbers of shots being administered,” Governor Cuomo said. “It is critical that we continue to engage New Yorkers and make vaccinations accessible because the real progress will be measured by how many shots we get into people’s arms. The more successful we are in vaccinating people, the more we can continue to turn the gauges of our economy towards reopening and continuing to stay open.”    

 

Approximately 10 million New Yorkers are currently eligible to receive the vaccine. New York’s vast distribution network and large population of eligible individuals still far exceed the supply coming from the federal government. Due to limited supply, New Yorkers are encouraged to remain patient and are advised not to show up at vaccination sites without an appointment.     

 

The ‘Am I Eligible’ screening tool has been updated for individuals with comorbidities and underlying conditions with new appointments released on a rolling basis over the next weeks. New Yorkers can use the following to show they are eligible:    

  • Doctor’s letter, or
  • Medical information evidencing comorbidity, or
  • Signed certification 

 

Vaccination program numbers below are for doses distributed and delivered to New York for the state’s vaccination program, and do not include those reserved for the federal government’s Long Term Care Facility program. A breakdown of the data based on numbers reported to New York State as of 11AM today is as follows.

New Yorkers seeking to determine eligibility and schedule an appointment at a state-run mass vaccination site, can visit the ‘Am I Eligible’ website. New Yorkers may also call their local health department, pharmacy, doctor, or hospital for additional information and to schedule appointments where vaccines are available.   

 

The COVID-19 Vaccine Tracker Dashboard is available to update New Yorkers on the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine. The New York State Department of Health requires vaccinating facilities to report all COVID-19 vaccine administration data within 24 hours; the vaccine administration data on the dashboard is updated daily to reflect the most up-to-date metrics in the state’s vaccination effort.    

 

New Yorkers who suspect fraud in the vaccine distribution process can now call 833-VAX-SCAM (833-829-7226) toll-free or email the state Department of Health at [email protected]. Hotline staff will route complaints to the appropriate investigative agencies to ensure New Yorkers are not being taken advantage of as the State works to vaccinate the entire eligible population.
