Appointments at these community-based “emerging” vaccination sites are scheduled directly with the host site or associated providers SOMOS Community Care and Northwell Health. These entities notify New Yorkers of the appointments scheduled for Sunday, Feb. 7 about these adjournments and the new dates of operation by text and phone message.

In addition, the site of the Christian Cultural Center cancels operations on Sundays, as they were able to extend hours and meet all appointments on Saturday.

Mass vaccination sites in New York
As Governor Cuomo previously announced, state-run mass vaccination sites in Jones Beach and Stony Brook on Long Island will also suspend operations on Sunday, Feb. 7 due to the winter weather. New Yorkers who have an appointment at these sites will receive an email or text message to reschedule the vaccination by the end of this week. As part of the rescheduling process and, to the extent possible, new appointment schedules will be scheduled based on the original appointment time. If this new appointment time does not work for a person given the change of day, you will be provided with a contact number to identify a different time that may work best for the person.

Operations at Westchester County Center, Yankee Stadium, Javits Center, and Racetrack Aqueduct, mass vaccination sites, will continue as scheduled, as these locations are inland and have the infrastructure and equipment to ensure that New Yorkers with appointments can enter and leave the location safely. Operations at the rest of the state-run mass vaccination sites throughout New York State also remain unaffected.

The Rockland County Clinic was rescheduled

The Rockland County Department of Health announces that the COVID-19 vaccination clinic scheduled for tomorrow Sunday, February 7, 2021 from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. has been rescheduled for Monday, February 8, 2021 from 1:00 p.m. 19:00 due to the weather.

If you have an appointment for Sunday to get vaccinated at the Rockland County Health Department clinic, you will receive a COVID-19 vaccine on Monday between 1pm and 7pm. No new appointments will be scheduled and you can come at your convenience from 1pm to 7pm on Monday. Be patient on arrival on Monday, as sometimes they may be busier than others due to these circumstances.
