Focusing on two groups the state calls "Youthful and the Doubtful," Cuomo explained why young people and those hesitant to take the jab are now being targeted for vaccination.

"Youthful and the doubtful," Cuomo said. "Those are our words. They're not like scientific words. Younger population and populations that have doubts. And we're working very hard to get the younger people, incentives for younger people."

He continued, "I've asked high schools to organize events where they drive their students to a mass vaccination site. Put them on a bus and bring them to a mass vaccination site, because that is the population that we need to vaccinate. The doubtful, the hesitant population. That's more education, more information, more education, more information."
