NY expands COVID-19 vaccine eligibility to age 50 and up

 New Yorkers age 50 and over will be eligible to receive a coveted COVID-19 vaccination starting Tuesday, Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced Monday.

“The vaccines will be available for people 50 years old and above, so we are dropping the age, as we’re vaccinating more people,” Cuomo said at the Grace Baptist Church in Mount Vernon during a closed-to-the-press briefing.

“Tomorrow morning, 50 and above … Make your appointment, and get your vaccine.”

Earlier this month, Cuomo had lowered the eligibility age to 60 from 65.
