Those who are not fully vaccinated, choose not to be vaccinated and\/or are immunocompromised, work or attend Pre-K to 12 schools, public transit, homeless shelters, correctional facilities, nursing homes and healthcare settings will continue to follow the State\u2019s existing COVID-19 health guidelines regarding masking until more New Yorkers are fully vaccinated. The Department of Health strongly recommends masks in indoor settings where vaccination status of individuals is unknown. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Mask requirements by businesses<\/strong> must adhere to all applicable federal and state laws and regulations. This recommendation will apply across commercial settings, including retail, food services, offices, gyms and fitness centers, amusement and family entertainment, hair salons, barber shops and other personal care services, among other settings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Vaccine Update<\/strong>: Anyone 12 and older is now eligible to be vaccinated against COVID-19. Currently only the Pfizer vaccine is allowed for those who are 12-17 years old. All vaccination clinics are for both first and second doses for Moderna and Pfizer brands on a \u2018First Come, First Served\u2019 basis. Some clinics have walk-in (generally Moderna and Johnson & Johnson) and some are by appointment only (generally Pfizer). <\/p>\n\n\n\n Please note making an appointment for any of the clinics will help save you time and make sure there is vaccine available for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For GO Health Department-run clinics use this link: https:\/\/gohealthny.org\/covid-19-vaccine-information\/<\/a> For general clinic locations, including pharmacies use the www.vaccines.gov<\/a> link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Both counties are offering vaccination clinic registration via phone \u2013 these numbers are for COVID Vaccination Registration ONLY. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In Genesee call (585) 815-7168<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In Orleans call (585) 589-3170<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For both numbers ask for the vaccine registration help line.
