At the Jamaica-179th Street Station in Queens, the nurses administering the vaccines began wrapping up at 1 p.m.

“I got two extra Covid shots,” Dolfina Arloro, a pharmacist, called out to a trickle of people coming through the turnstiles. “Anyone want a Covid vaccine?”

There were no takers, but already 300 people had been vaccinated at that station that day.

The program is continuing through Saturday.
