China News Service, May 7th. According to a comprehensive report from the American Chinese website, on May 6th local time, New York Mayor Desiree announced that New York City intends to provide all tourists with Johnson & Johnson vaccines for free.
In introducing the plan, De Blasio stated that New York City intends to install mobile vaccination vehicles in popular attractions and provide visitors with Johnson & Johnson vaccines free of charge so that they can enjoy more convenience during their stay in New York.
He said that this requires New York State to amend its vaccination regulations to allow non-New York residents who do not work here to be vaccinated.
Bai Sihao said that his team is working with the state government to complete this work.
According to reports, if approved by the state government, mobile vaccination vehicles can be opened to tourists in places such as the Empire State Building, Times Square, Brooklyn Bridge Park, High Line Park and Central Park as early as this weekend.
Bai Sihao said: "This is a positive message for tourists: come here, it is safe, very safe, we will take care of you, and we will ensure that you are vaccinated during your stay in New York."
According to a report issued by the New York State Audit Office a few days ago, the new crown epidemic has caused the loss of 89,000 tourism jobs in New York City in 2020, and the economic contribution of tourists has decreased by 60 billion yuan, which may take several years to recover.
