    (THE BRONX, N.Y.) New York City announced 55.2% of residents across the boroughs have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19, according to News 12. The Bronx continues its vaccination efforts as New York City Health and Hospitals set up a mobile vaccination site in Bedford Park.

    The statewide percentage of fully vaccinated people is currently at 57.3%.

    With more cases of the delta variant surging, the city continues its efforts to curve the spread by giving locals more access to the vaccine.

    Officials and health care professionals continue to work together to create awareness for the benefits of receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. Recently, they established a $100 cash card incentive for anyone who receives the shot at a state-run vaccination site.
