De Blasio wants NYC to shut down COVID-19 hot spots starting Wednesday
New York Post ^ | October 4, 2020 | Kate Sheehy

Mayor Bill de Blasio said Sunday he wants the state to help shut down nine COVID-19 hot-spot neighborhoods in Brooklyn and Queens starting Wednesday — closing all of their non-essential businesses, public and private schools and restaurant dining.

Kids in the areas with spiking coronavirus numbers could still go to school for the next two days before going all remote Wednesday, de Blasio said — while houses of worship will remain open.

“We’re having an extraordinary problem — something we haven’t seen since spring,’’ de Blasio told reporters on a conference call, referring to the uptick in the coronavirus in those areas.

About a half-million people would be affected by the return to the kind of drastic shut-down that the city hasn’t seen since mid-March.

Why wait until Wednesday?

That is, if there were an actual threat.

Cuz you had them all locked up. This uptick would have been part of first run and stats wouldn’t change as far as seriousness and deaths. In other words, the lockdown is the cause of this wave.

"Hey lets go out for Italian food tomorrow night."

"Can't, do that, the retardant in Queens is shuttered."

"No problem man, they have a great one over in Manhattan or the Bronx."

"Staten Island is the best!" "OK, lets do it!"

Before you all ask me what “retardant” is. You know my brain meant restaurant and fingers meant retardant.

Exactly. If there was real concern, waiting until Wednesday allows for exponentially increasing exposure.

I believe soon after the election there will be NATIONAL IRON CLAD LAWS written that Will prevent this crap from ever happening again or as some dictator Democrat can with a whim shut anything down

We’ve already seen the start of this in Michigan where the court shot down that idiot Whitmer

Enough is enough

Virus or no virus ; health crisis or no health crisis

If we got a freaking war and gun battles in the streets OK - Marshall laws

OK but other than that screw that.

It’s incredibly obvious when you notice that it’s only hard core left communist Democrats that are trying all this crap

Unlike fast-responding PDJT, the question that Democratic elite are evidently still not considering is how many people in the areas to be shut down will have been infected with SARS-CoV-2 between now and the end of Tuesday?

Insights welcome.

Send “Orange Man Bad” federal and state government desperate Democrats home in November!

Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping SARS-CoV-2 will effectively give fast-working Trump a “third term” in office imo.

I don’t see any problem with voting Republican ticket for 2020 elections.

Again, insights welcome.

So Mayor Kaiser Wilhelm DeBlasio wants to shut down “coronavirus hotspots”. Does this include nursing homes like the ones that Governor ‘Nursing Home Killer’ (NHK) Cuomo created by forcing seniors to their death?

Republicans everywhere need to call for the positive test data to be audited for the presence of symptoms and seriousness of the alleged cases. Sampling techniques can be used.
