New York City is now offering vaccinations to tourists after a change in state regulations. The city received state approval to offer one dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine to US tourists at mobile vaccination hubs at popular spots.
The initiative is part of the city’s overall effort to support the tourism and hospitality industry and boost the number of people offered the vaccine in the area. Approved by the state’s Governor Andrew Cuomo, the scheme has successfully rolled out after a change in eligibility regulations, which allows anyone older than the age of 16, who lives in the US, the opportunity to receive a vaccination in New York.
