Westchester Insider: Westchester County Legislator Ruth Walter 15th District: Fake COVID-19 Vaccination Cards Are Now Illegal in New York.

Dear Friends and Neighbors, 

As you know, my term ends January 1, 2022. I have truly enjoyed sending you these e-newsletters that connect my constituents with helpful information regarding County government. 

From essential health information about flu shots and COVID vaccination guidelines, to Bee Line bus schedule changes, to fun events throughout the County parks, my enthusiasm for all our County’s amazing services has not lessened but rather grown over these two years. After the end of December, I invite you to write to me at legislatorwalter@gmail.com or find me on social media. It has truly been an honor to serve District 15!

Sincerely,

Ruth Walter




Fake COVID-19 Vaccination Cards Are Now Illegal in New York.

Gov. Kathy Hochul signed new legislation on December 23 making fake COVID-19 vaccination cards a misdemeanor crime. And it creates a new felony crime of computer tampering.

The new law also helps schools get better access to a statewide immunization database, among other directives.

This comes as more cities tighten rules requiring proof of vaccination in the face of the omicron surge.
