New York lowers vaccine age eligibility to 60
New York is expanding vaccine eligibility to everyone over the age of 60 beginning March 10, officials announced.
Previously, only residents 65 and up, as well as certain essential workers and people with specific certain underlying conditions were eligible for the vaccine.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) on Tuesday also said public facing essential workers from governmental and nonprofit entities will be eligible beginning March 17.
This includes public works employees, social service and child service caseworkers, government inspectors, sanitation workers and DMV workers.
