NEW YORK CITY -- Former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio held a press conference on Thursday to make some recommendations -- and criticisms -- when it comes to the city and its handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.The infection rate has been surging over the past two weeks to nearly 20%, and experts warn the number of cases could be significantly undercounted due to at-home testing."I think city, state and federal leaders need to say this is a new type of COVID," de Blasio said.
"I have spoken to Mayor Adams, we have a very respectful relationship," de Blasio said."We communicate a lot...and what I've said to him is that I think we're dealing with a new situation.""This is just part of a cycle that we are going to, unfortunately, be in for some time," said Dr. Jay Varma, a top adviser to de Blasio throughout the pandemic."And we, as scientists, have no way of predicting when we're going to get out of it.
"A proper response from our federal and city government starts and ends with clarity from our institutions," he said."We had a color-coded safety system in March and then it was abandoned by June. We had clearly laid out requirements for restaurants, gyms, and entertainment venues that worked, and then they were dropped and their enforcement is up in the air."1. Distribute at-home test kits, high-quality N95 masks, and information about Paxlovid to every household in NYC.
5. Use federal stimulus or infrastructure dollars to address indoor air quality in private buildings and/or tax breaks to support these investments.
