A mass
COVID-19 vaccination site at Nassau University Medical Center in East Meadow is
serving military veterans exclusively.
An
organizer there told News 12 that today was “better than Christmas” as lines of
veterans waited to receive their shots.
Inside
the facility are flags and messages to the veterans, thanking them for their
service.
The
site expects to vaccinate 300 veterans each day for as long as needed.
It is also vaccinating spouses of veterans.
Any
veterans who are eligible can call the Nassau Veterans Service Agency at
516-572-6565.
