Of course, if we remain vigilant, we will reach the light at the end of the tunnel,” Governor Cuomo said. “As we continue to expand access to the vaccine across the state, New Yorkers must reduce the behaviors that make such an important difference in fighting this pandemic – washing hands, wearing masks and socializing. This is a race. difficult, but the infection rate is low and the vaccination rate is high, and New Yorkers will get over it together, as long as they stay in touch and keep that momentum going in the right direction. “
