Stacey Sager has more on Dr. Harvey Katz, one of eight volunteers answering the call for help at the Nassau Community College vaccination pod.

GARDEN CITY, Long Island (WABC) -- As more New Yorkers qualify for the coronavirus vaccine, there is a growing urgent need for more staff to vaccinate all those lining up for shots.

In Nassau County, doctors and nurses are answering the call for help by volunteering their time.

It would appear as though Dr. Harvey Katz -- the vaccinator -- has been doing this his whole life, putting patients like 98-year-old Morton Singer more at ease with humor as he gives Singer and others the lifesaving COVID vaccine.

However, what his patients may not realize is Dr. Katz is actually a podiatrist who works in Manhattan.
