New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo urged private businesses on Aug. 2 to institute “vaccine-only” admission in order to incentivize getting vaccinated against COVID-19.

“Private businesses, bars, restaurants: go to a vaccine-only admission. ... I believe it’s in your business interest to run a vaccine-only establishment,” he said, without elaborating.
