NewsdayBy Lisa L. ColangeloAugust 29, 2025New Yorkers who want to get the updated COVID-19 vaccine will need a prescription to get one at CVS pharmacies, officials said Friday.The vaccines are expected to be delivered to pharmacies on Long Island and across the state in the coming days, but federal health officials are no longer recommending them to everyone over 6 months old.CVS, the nation’s largest pharmacy chain, said in a statement that in 14 states, including New York, it would administer the FDA-authorized COVID-19 vaccines to patients "if they present an authorized prescriber’s prescription," until a federal vaccine advisory panel makes a recommendation next month. That applies to those over 65, a CVS spokeswoman wrote in an email.On Wednesday, the Food and Drug Administration authorized three updated COVID-19 vaccines for people 65 and over as well as those with underlying health conditions such as high blood pressure, asthma and obesity.Other people can get the vaccine after consulting with their doctors, according to a social media post from Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Remember that he pushed ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine for the treatment of COVID, they are normally used for, ivermectin is used to treat parasitic infections and hydroxychloroquine instead of vaccine. So now those under 65 will have to pay for the vaccine. We get the flue vaccines for free but now those who want protection from COVID will have to go begging the doctors office.
Make America sick again!
