New York Daily NewsThe Big Apple could be getting another tourist attraction: COVID vaccinations.
The city is ready to distribute Johnson & Johnson shots at Times Square and other sites, Mayor de Blasio said Thursday.
This is a positive message to tourists: come here, its safe, its a great place to be and were going to take care of you, Hizzoner said at a press conference. Were going to make sure you get vaccinated while youre here with us.
He envisioned mobile vaccinations sites at the High Line in Manhattan, Brooklyn Bridge Park and other locations as soon as this weekend, though he said the state would have to green-light the move first.
