Each week, the federal government supplies New York with between 250,000 and 300,000 doses of the vaccine - with more on the way - which are then distributed to different regions based on population.

This week, Westchester was set to receive 6,700 more doses, distributed across the county based on need and risk. Those vaccines are then administered to those eligible, which includes residents over the age of 65, healthcare workers, essential workers, residents, and employees at nursing homes.
