Gov. Hochul announces new VaxForKids pop-up vaccination sites

The goal of the pop-up vaccination sites is to increase vaccination rates among children 5 years and older.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Governor Kathy Hochul announced 63 new #VaxForKids pop-up vaccination sites across New York with 24 of those being in Western New York. 

Also, Gov. Hochul held a briefing Wednesday and talked about how more children need to get vaccinated in the state and that masks will still be required in schools. 

The goal of the pop-up vaccination sites is to increase vaccination rates among children 5 years and older to get vaccinated and help keep up with all recommended COVID-19 vaccine doses, including the booster.

"Over 1.6 million children have received the COVID-19 vaccine - and they are better protected because of it," Hochul said. "But our work to ensure all eligible kids get vaccinated continues, with 193 #VaxForKids pop-up sites established to date. This week, 63 new pop-ups are coming online to bring the vaccine directly to communities across New York State. I urge every parent and guardian to make sure their child is vaccinated and up-to-date with all recommended vaccine doses."

To date, over 1.6 million children 5 - 17 have been vaccinated against COVID-19.
