During the Omoicron spike, we had a ~25% positivity rate in CT and MA. West Springfield, MA home to the Big E, basically a state fair for all New England states, also hosts plenty of year round events. They had a full calendar and made a big deal, publicly, about all the tourism dollars it brings in, strangely the city decided the $cience said no mask mandate. Strange.
Adams COVID problems are minor compared to the surging violent crime.
That’s why people aren’t going back in.
This dope has spent his first six weeks in office publicly calling for business leaders whose NYC employees have been working from home for the last two years to bring them back to the office. The last report I saw indicated that something like only 30% of the office workers in NYC who started working from home during the pandemic have returned.
It reached the point of pathetic stupidity when the media recently reported on one of those online web meetings with the mayor and a bunch of business leaders. Apparently this goofy mayor was the last one to figure out that most of the people talking to him on his computer screen were sitting in Florida and have no interest in coming back to NYC.
One of them probably felt sorry for him, called him on the phone, and said: “You really are dumber than a bag of bricks. You’re never going to convince anyone to come back to work in NYC while you’re still insisting on keeping those stupid vaccine and mask mandates in force.”
Exactly. As Rush said, employees/employers figured out you can get most work done from home. Why bother with millions of dolls of office space you don’t need, have dedicated spaces for those tasks that need in-office work and some flex space for people to come in as needed to work on specific projects and tasks.
Employees also don’t have to commute daily, maybe get stabbed, on a NYC subway or pay excessive NYC rent and still get work done. NO need to go back to the office 5 days week.
At least it is not IAD Dulles.
Eric needs to start saying how he inherited a destroyed city from DeBlasio. Remind people who did it. He could start fixing it tomorrow if he wasn’t beholden to the lefties.
You mean Reality bites Adams in the rear
NYC better cut that garbage if they reverse want our vacation dollars.
Been wanting to go a few years now, esp. for our son and in honor of my mom who loved it so much, but “can’t” because of the asinine rules.
I’m not familiar with that place; never passed through.
No worries there, bud, because it isn’t science. It’s bullsh*t, lies, fear, and propaganda.
Mayor Adams fires 1,430 NYC workers for refusing to get COVID vaccine
If he's getting rid of vaccine mandates, what about those jobs?
I am glad you like NYC. I generally appreciate your comments. I lived there in the late 1990’s. I could not wait to leave.
So what happens to all the people this assh0le fired for not taking the vax? Funny how it all was cured thanks to bad polling.
Exactly....where do all of these fired people go to get their jobs back...and, where do the jabbed go to get their health/immune systems back?
All the left wing radical sports journalists on ESPN can now shut up about Kyrie Irving being “selfish” in not getting vaccinated. He was right to stay strong...I always knew the ridiculous NYC mandate would be dropped before the NBA playoffs began.
Hey dp, off-topic but... haven’t seen you in a long time, glad to see you back! Best to you from Manhattan-
Foe Jiden’s already purged the military with his mandate. It’s served its purpose.
What will Brandon Castreau do with all these confiscated trucks? Oooo! Oooo! I know! Nationalize the trucking industry! That’ll keep the supply chain humming along./s
That garbage barge sailed for New York City. No one trusts that they won't just flip the switch and implement mandates again.
I can finally go back to the gym!!! 🏋🏻♀️
LOL! Oh man, I missed me some dp0266 phrase turning. Welcome back!
