In 2019, over 1,000 cases of measles were confirmed across 31 states, with the majority of cases among people who were not vaccinated. This shows, while many serious diseases are no longer common in the US, they can still spread when vaccination rates are low. #NIAM #ivax2protect

#BREAKING: Most remaining COVID restrictions will be lifted when 70% of adult New Yorkers have received at least one dose of the COVID vaccine.

We’re only 1.4% away from hitting that goal.

Get vaccinated.

On April 23, the CDC determined the benefits of the vaccine greatly outweigh the very small risk associated with its use and recommended administration of the vaccine resume.
