As the second wave of coronavirus sweeps New York, the state's governor has threatened legal action not only against a Brooklyn-based network of medical clinics that allegedly distributed the Moderna coronavirus vaccine out of sequence with state guidelines but those who received the first shot before their eligibility.
"We will not tolerate any fraud in the vaccination process. Anyone who engages in fraud is going to be held accountable," Cuomo said at a news conference Monday. "We want to send a clear signal to the providers that if you violate the law on these vaccinations, we will find out and you will be prosecuted."
As it stands, the state is only issuing the coveted vaccine to inoculate frontline healthcare workers and those in vulnerable aged-care facilities, and not yet to individuals with underlying health conditions despite ParCare's brazen advertisements that anyone in those three categories could receive the shot.
The threats from Albany – and the notion of targeting individuals who say they simply followed the clinic's protocol and submitted applications online – have several people concerned.
"I would never have participated in something I thought was criminally wrong," one Manhattan professional who got the jab told Fox News. "Everything I filled out on my form was honest and truthful."

God, I hate that man. Wish he would get a fatal case of Covid
The only fraud I see is the one in the governor's seat in Albany.
NewsMax just had on that they are also prioritizing essential (non-healthcare) workers over cancer patients.
The seniors are too white and the cancer patients have no union to get favors. So old cancer patients are REALLY screwed.

I don’t have a clue why people are anxious to get the shot. The government, be it State or Federal knows many don’t even want to get it so they will have to criminalize NOT GETTING IT...all the time they’re making criminals out of people who get it out OF TURN??? Good grief - what a mixed up mess!
I’m not interested in getting it and I don’t know anyone who is. My husband and I are in our mid eighties and we have a caregiver for him and she’s not interested in getting it...
Boy, there’s a guy whose parents never told him to STFU when necessary while growing up.
