Cuomo announced on Tuesday that New Yorkers over the age of 65 will now be eligible to get the coronavirus vaccine after the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention altered its guidance on vaccine prioritization to recommend inoculating that group.

The expanded criteria will open up vaccinations to at least 1.8 million more New York State residents, Cuomo said.

Immunocompromised individuals are also slated to become eligible to get vaccinated under the new federal guidelines, but state officials are still working with the CDC to determine who qualifies as part of that group, according to Melissa DeRosa, a top aide to the governor.
