In New York, recovering addicts will be first in line to receive COVID-19 to ensure vaccine equity

NEW YORK, NY – The liberal left has hi-jacked the medical vaccination process in America.  On Monday, Cuomo said a batch of the state’s vaccine will go to the Office of Addiction Services and Supports.

“New York state has prioritized the vaccine distribution to high-risk populations, including those in congregate care settings where there is an increased danger of virus spread. Many people in these facilities also have additional risk factors that make them more vulnerable to the effects of COVID-19,” Cuomo said. “Unfortunately, there continues to be a stigma against those in recovery when it comes to equal access to health care. These individuals deserve the same access to medical care as everyone else, and those at high risk of COVID should be vaccinated in line with other high-risk populations.”
