It allows presentation of the NYC COVID Safe Pass and the NY State Excelsior Pass - I'm not a NY resident and am not certain what these cover but medical exemptions may already be baked into those proofs of vaccination. Otherwise yea - I agree that there isn't an accommodation for those with medical conditions precluding vaccination. However, I think the negative test result in lieu is a very different question - those tests are highly effective but allowing test proofs in lieu of vaccination would likely burden the testing framework (which I believe is still freely offered by the government in the states) and would allow a route for objectors to avoid vaccination. I believe at this point the primary goal is to increase vaccination proportions to prevent more disease waves.
