Innovative response

Officials in New York trying to boost a flagging vaccination campaign set up temporary walk-in vaccination sites at eight subway and train stations. People vaccinated at the rail and subway locations can get a free seven-day MetroCard or two free one-way tickets for the Long Island Rail Road or Metro-North. The programme is a pilot and may be extended.
