1:58Now PlayingHealth-care providers in New York that violate vaccine laws could be fined as much as $1 million and have their licenses revoked, Governor Andrew Cuomo said on Monday.
Cuomo said he’ll sign an executive order increasing penalties for those engaging in fraud with the Covid-19 vaccine. The move comes as the state investigates reports that ParCare Community Health Network in Orange County improperly distributed Covid-19 vaccines to people not on the state’s priority list. There is enough evidence that the case is being referred to the Attorney General’s Office, Cuomo said.
ParCare is the only health-care provider that is being investigated for criminal fraud, according to Cuomo, who said that company is the only one he is “at liberty to speak about now.” Fraud is expected when dealing with a valuable commodity, he said. “We are hyper-cautious, hyper-vigilant. We’re putting in the strictest penalties in the country the best that we can determine,” he said.
To date, 140,000 New Yorkers have received one vaccine, and the state will receive 259,000 more shots this week, Cuomo said.
Hospitalizations for Covid-19, meanwhile, continue to climb. They reached 7,559 yesterday, double the number a month ago.
