New York City COVID-19 Testing Sites
Operations at the following state-run COVID-19 test sites will be suspended on February 7 due to the looming winter storm:
Glen Island in New Rochelle;
Aqueduct Racecourse in Queens;
Bronx Bay Plaza in the Bronx;
Lehman College in the Bronx;
Jones Beach on Long Island;
Stony Brook on Long Island;

Seaview Avenue on Staten Island; and
Fountain Avenue in Brooklyn.

New Yorkers whose meetings are scheduled for Sunday, February 7 will receive a closing notice by text and phone. Appointments will be postponed until later in the week.

Community pop-up vaccination sites
Seven community-based “pop-up” vaccination sites will also be postponed due to the storm and postponed until later this week. These eight sites include:
Abyssinian Baptist Church, 132 W 138th New York, NY 10030
BronxWorks, 1130 Grand Hall, BX, 10456
Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, 1376 Prospect Ave, Bronx, NY 10459

Marble Hill Homes, 5365 Broadway, Bronx, NY 10463
First Corona Baptist Church, 100-10 Astoria Blvd, East Elmhurst, NY 11369
United Revival Mennonite Church, 390 Melrose St, Brooklyn, NY 11237

Appointments at these community-based “pop-up” vaccination sites are scheduled directly with the host site or partner providers SOMOS Community Care and Northwell Health. These entities notify New Yorkers of the meetings scheduled for Sunday, February 7 of these postponements and new operation dates by SMS and telephone.

Additionally, the Christian Cultural Center site is canceling Sunday operations because they were able to extend hours and fill all appointments on Saturday.

Mass vaccination sites in New York
As Governor Cuomo previously announced, the state-run mass vaccination sites at Jones Beach and Stony Brook on Long Island will also suspend operations on Sunday, February 7 due to winter weather conditions. New Yorkers with appointments at these sites will receive an email or text resuming their vaccination for later this week. As part of the rescheduling process and to the extent possible, the schedule for new appointments will be scheduled based on the time of the initial appointment. If this new meeting time does not work for a person given the change in day, they will be given a contact number to identify a different time that might work better for the person.

Operations at Westchester County Center, Yankee Stadium, Javits Center and the Racetrack Aqueduct mass vaccination sites will continue as planned, as these sites are located indoors and have the infrastructure and equipment necessary for New Yorkers with appointments to safely enter and exit the premises. Operations at other state-run mass vaccination sites in upstate New York also remain intact.

Rockland County Clinic Postponed

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

If you have an appointment on Sunday to get the vaccine at the Rockland County Health Department clinic, you will receive a COVID-19 vaccine on Monday between 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. No new appointment will be scheduled and you can come at your convenience from 1:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Monday. Please be patient when you arrive on Monday as some hours may be busier than others due to these circumstances.
