Data show that people who are fully vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19 have the highest amount of protection against both the Delta and Omicron variants, compared with people who remain unvaccinated. Boosters provide the most protection against infection, hospitalization, and death from COVID-19. It is important to stay up to date with COVID-19 vaccination to protect yourself and others.

CUNY School of Public Health is conducting a Vaccine Literacy Campaign
The New York Vaccine Literacy Campaign was launched in May 2021 and developed by CONVINCE USA and a team of faculty and staff at CUNY SPH. This 18-month Campaign aims to lighten the load of community and direct service organizations by increasing community-level access to vaccine education and information through tailored webinars, education modules, training, and other capacity-building resources. Data tracking and resource navigation will be provided via a dashboard adapted to respond to the needs identified by community partners. The Campaign is engaged in NYC’s five boroughs, Long Island, and Westchester and Rockland counties. This project is made possible with support from the New York Community Trust, the Altman Foundation, and New York State Health Foundation. Nyack Center’s executive director, Kim Cross, represents Rockland County.
