All New Yorkers above the age of 30 will be eligible to receive their Covid-19 vaccinations beginning on Tuesday, and anyone above the age of 16 will become eligible next week on April 6 at 8:00 AM, Governor Andrew Cuomo announced on Monday.
The governor said the state was opening up its eligibility to anyone above the two sets of ages, regardless of work status or health conditions.
Mr Cuomo also wrote in a tweet: “Beginning tomorrow at 8am, all New Yorkers age 30+ will be eligible to schedule and receive the vaccines.”
“Today we take a monumental step forward in the fight to beat COVID,” Mr Cuomo said in a news release.
He said the new age limits were announced “well ahead of the May 1 deadline set by the White House.”
