Fellow Orange County Residents,
I am writing to update you regarding Orange County’s efforts to vaccinate all our residents.
At my direction, the County’s Health and Emergency Services Departments have set up a Point of Distribution (POD) at 23 Hatfield Lane in Goshen to administer the COVID-19 vaccinations. We have successfully vaccinated approximately 4,000 residents who are in the State’s 1A and 1B category.
Orange County continues to administer 100 percent of the vaccination provided to us by the State. The County has the capacity to vaccinate thousands of residents each week but supplies from the State and Federal Governments have been limited. If you would like to register to be put on our wait list for the COVID-19 vaccine, please go to vaccination.orangecountygov.com.
I also encourage you to contact any provider with an available vaccine, or continue to check the NYSDOH “Am I eligible” link for current availability to ensure timely vaccine administration. My office will continue to vigorously advocate for Orange County residents, requesting that an adequate supply for those who want to be vaccinated be made available by the State.
All my best,
Steven M. Neuhaus
Orange County Executive
