Show Me Your Vax Card? NYC Imposes COVID Vaccine Requirement To Dine Indoors, Go To The Gym

The rise in COVID cases is why New York City is the first place in the country to impose a vaccination requirement for people who want to dine indoors at a restaurant, see a performance or go to the gym.

According to NYC.gov, there have been 978,000 COVID cases and over 33,000 deaths in New York City.

It's those numbers, and the threat of the Delta coronavirus variant spreading that has the city's mayor demanding vaccination proof.

The program will begin later this month, with enforcement beginning in mid-September.
