officials say three
new coronavirus vaccine sites will soon open on Long Island.
The state
will be opening facilities at SUNY OLD Westbury, Suffolk Community College in
Brentwood, and the SUNY Stony Brook Southampton Campus.
Southampton Town Supervisor Jay Schneiderman says this is
exciting news, because existing vaccination sites like Jones Beach are too far
away.
"Now
this is going to open up all new appointments, so I'm really hopeful that some
of the people who have been struggling to get an appointment anywhere are now
going to be able to get an appointment close to home that's great," says
Schneiderman.
The final
details, like information about scheduling appointments and hours of operation will be released in the coming
days.
