484ds agoA pop-up COVID-19 vaccination site opened at the Cooper Park Houses in Williamsburg this morning.
Rep. Carolyn Maloney called on the mayor earlier this month to open a site at this location because it was a community where some people felt there wasn't enough vaccine accessibility.
The Cooper Park Houses also has a significant amount of elderly and disabled residents.
