COVID-19 Updates
In New York City, COVID-19 case rates are
stable, while hospitalization, and fatality rates continue to gradually
decrease. This status reflects a recent uptick in Coronavirus cases on
Staten Island. It is possible that cases will also start to increase in
other parts of NYC in the coming weeks, due to new variants circulating in
New York, waning immunity, New Yorkers spending more time indoors, and
fewer people wearing masks.
At this time, there is not just one, but several
new variants circulating in the U.S., including in NYS: BQ.1, BQ.1.1,
BA.4.6, and BF.7. There is also potential for the XBB variant to reach the
U.S. These variants are being closely monitored to determine the severity
of illness they may cause, as well as their ability to evade immunity. For
more information about these variants, please see the following Washington Post article and New York Times article.
To have maximum protection against severe
illness from the Coronavirus, it is essential for children and adults to
stay up to date with their COVID-19 vaccinations. Now that children age
5 years + and adults are eligible for the updated Bivalent vaccine, I urge
you and any children to get the COVID-19 Bivalent vaccination as soon as
you are eligible. To find vaccine sites administering the Moderna and
Pfizer Bivalent vaccinations to adults and children, please speak with
your health care provider, your child’s Pediatrician, or use the NYC
Vaccine Finder online
search tool or call the NYC vaccine scheduling hotline at 877-829-4692.
Finally, another COVID-19 prevention tool is
improving ventilation and air filtration. You can do so in your home by
purchasing a portable HEPA air filtration unit or by making your own Corsi
box: https://engineering.ucdavis.edu/news/science-action-how-build-corsi-rosenthal-box

Monkeypox (MPV) Updates
The NYC Health Department is now referring to
Monkeypox as MPV, as the previous name is inaccurate and stigmatizing. As
of October 16, 3,683 cases of MPV were confirmed in New York City. The
number of new cases per day has significantly decreased, thanks to increased
availability of the JYNNEOS vaccine, awareness-raising initiatives, and
New Yorkers following safe measures. The NYC Health Department continues
to urge New Yorkers to consult with their health care provider if they are
experiencing possible symptoms of MPV, and to get the JYNNEOS vaccine if
they are eligible. Please visit the NYC Health Department’s MPV
website for additional details and updates.
If you are eligible
for a first dose of the JYNNEOS vaccine, you can schedule an
appointment online at the NYC
Monkeypox Vaccine Portal or by calling 877-829-4692. Please note that individuals are not
eligible to get vaccinated at this time if: 1) They had Monkeypox or 2) If
they have Monkeypox symptoms.

Poliovirus Updates
Wastewater analysis continues to
detect the spread of poliovirus in New York City. If
you or your child have not received all four doses, it is very important
to get the remaining doses at this time. To get the
IPV immunization, please contact your or your child's primary care
provider. It is also possible for children age 2 months+ and adults to get
the polio vaccine at certain CVS Minute Clinics. Please make sure to
confirm the CVS Minute Clinic accepts your health insurance.
·
To schedule an appointment online,
go to the following CVS web page to look up locations where the polio
vaccine is available and to schedule an appointment: https://www.cvs.com/minuteclinic/services/ipv-polio
·
If you do not have access to the
internet, you can call the CVS Minute Clinics helpline at 1-866-389-2727
to schedule an appointment. The helpline is not solely dedicated to
scheduling appointments. In order to reach a live representative,
please follow these steps:
1)
Follow the prompts to listen to
information in the language of your choice (simply hold for English);
2)
When you are prompted to indicate
whether you are calling about the COVID-19 vaccine, indicate “no”;
3)
When you are prompted to say what
you are calling about, say "making an appointment";
4)
An automated message will instruct
you to use the website to schedule an appointment (do not hang up), and
you will be asked if you want to receive a text with a link to the website
- indicate "no";
5)
You will then be prompted to
indicate if you are done with the phone call, if you want to return to the
former menu of options, or if you want to speak with a representative -

needs. Volunteers who speak Spanish are especially needed, but folks who

reduction when a payment of at least $500 is made toward DSS arrears (up
to the amount owed). For those with a current support order, the
court-ordered amount must be paid first. Then the Pay It Off payment can
reduce the debt by 100%. Parents may be eligible for additional reductions
up to $15,000 over three years. Pay off the principle in full and all of
the interest owed to the DSS will also be eliminated. Learn more at the

Social Security Announces 8.7 Percent Benefit Increase for
2023: Social
Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits for approximately
70 million Americans will increase 8.7 percent in 2023, the Social
Security Administration announced today. On average, Social Security benefits will
increase by more than $140 per month starting in January. The 8.7 percent
cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) will begin with benefits payable to more
than 65 million Social Security beneficiaries in January 2023. Increased payments to more than 7 million
SSI beneficiaries will begin on December 30, 2022. (Note: some people receive both Social
Security and SSI benefits). The
Social Security Act ties the annual COLA to the increase in the Consumer
Price Index as determined by the Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor
Statistics. Some other adjustments that take effect in January of each
year are based on the increase in average wages. Based on that increase, the maximum
amount of earnings subject to the Social Security tax (taxable maximum)
will increase to $160,200 from $147,000.
Social
Security and SSI beneficiaries are normally notified by mail starting in
early December about their new benefit amount. The
fastest way to find out their new benefit amount is to access their
personal my Social Security account to view the COLA notice online. People
may create or access their my Social Security account online at www.ssa.gov/myaccount.
The
Social Security Act provides for how the COLA is calculated. To read more, please visit www.ssa.gov/cola.
