I've directed a 24/7 Operations Center - led by
@HealthNYGov - to monitor staffing operations & trends statewide, advise health care facilities, and help troubleshoot situations with providers. We'll also work with localities to check-in on staffing status across New York. 3/Show this thread
As of Monday evening:
92% of nursing home staff has received at least one vaccine dose
89% of adult care facility staff has received at least one vaccine dose
92% of hospital staff, according to preliminary self-reported data, has received at least one vaccine dose. 4/

The only way we can move past this pandemic is to ensure that everyone eligible is vaccinated. New York is first in the nation to implement a health care worker vaccine mandate. Let’s continue leading the way and keeping New Yorkers safe & healthy. 5/5

There are unvaccinated New Yorkers working in private homeless shelters. Vulnerable clients should not be exposed to covid. Mandate that all shelters receiving state funding should have vaccinated staff!

Can you look into what is happening in Dutchess County? Hospital worker vaccination rates are at just 65% (as of 9/22). Thankfully, skilled nursing facilities are much higher and in line with the state averages.

Life is about making choices. No one can only enjoy rights and freedom without doing duties and obligations. It is always a choice. One has to learn how to make choices: if you want to reject vaccine, fine. Find some other jobs. Move to other places where vaxx is not required.

Start testing the vaccinated people and start showing the honest number of breakthrough infections.
