These are the updated rules for vaccine requirements in New York City.
The city will launch a campaign to promote COVID-19 boosters this fall. It will include print, television, radio, and digital ads.
"I’m thrilled to roll up my sleeve and get boosted and encourage all eligible New Yorkers to do the same," said Mayor Adams. "The new bivalent booster is here, providing better protection against variants we are seeing now and quite likely against variants in the future as well." New York City continues to strongly urge private employers to put in place their own vaccine mandates.
The mayor says updated bivalent COVID-19 boosters are more effective at protecting against the latest variants and are recommended for all New Yorkers ages 12-and-up whose last COVID-19 vaccination was more than two months ago.
