New York Senate Bill S07088, introduced on April 1, 2025, seeks to prohibit mandatory COVID-19 vaccinations in the state. It aims to prevent requiring proof of vaccination for activities such as attending school or daycare, using public transportation, traveling, entering public buildings, obtaining employment, residing in nursing homes, or receiving government services.

Supporters of Bill S07088 argue that it safeguards individual freedoms and bodily autonomy by preventing government mandates on COVID-19 vaccinations. They believe it ensures that personal health decisions remain private and voluntary.

Critics of Bill S07088 contend that it could undermine public health efforts by limiting the tools available to control the spread of COVID-19. They express concern that prohibiting vaccination requirements may lead to higher infection rates and strain healthcare resources.
