Looking to get one of the latest monkeypox vaccination appointments the New York City Health Department released on Friday? Unless you acted fast, you’re already too late
The city initially was going to make 8,200 appointments available, but added another 1,000 late Friday afternoon. Those extra doses were originally reserved for second doses, but the city added them in an effort to get as many people vaccinated as possible. The Health Department said that it"decided providing first doses to offer protection to more at-risk New Yorkers is the best strategy until we receive adequate vaccine supply.
The number of places where a shot will be available will soon expand as well. In addition to the existing monkeypox vaccine clinics located at the city's Chelsea, Central Harlem, and Corona Sexual Health Clinics, another clinic will open at NYC Health + Hospitals/Gotham Health on Vanderbilt Avenue in Staten Island.
Governor Kathy Hochul has been pushing for more help from the federal government in obtaining Monkeypox vaccines as the city scrambles to give out the doses they currently have available, Rana Novini reports.
