New York City does not “intend” to require masks indoors as the Big Apple sees an uptick in COVID-19 cases amid a highly infectious variant surge, Mayor Bill de Blasio said Monday.

“No. Simple answer: no,” de Blasio said Monday morning during his daily press briefing, when asked if the city would reinstitute a face-covering mandate for the unvaccinated and vaccinated in indoor spaces, following a vocal local politician calling for one.

“Masks have value, unquestionably. But masks are not going at the root of the problem — vaccination is.”

De Blasio vowed that the city will “double down” on vaccination outreach to combat the recent rise in coronavirus cases.

I believe Cuomo has now lost his powers...and DeBlasio has none, there isn't much choice.

How many places did they put out of business. How many businesses were physically destroyed...and they did nothing.

But enter the Capitol and you may go to jail for years....even if you're just browsing. Some insurrection.

Putin laughed at it.

Pediatrics is in the tank.

It doesn’t surprise me they push this garbage. Along with asking about guns and helmets for bikes.

Well, good on him.

Even a stopped watch is right twice a day.

The Karen’s will be very upset he is not mandating masks again. I have seen a slight increase in mask wearing within the last week and a half to two weeks as the media keeps pushing the Delta variant propaganda.

If he says masks are not needed could it be that really they are?
