Big Blitz Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 (edited) What were those metrics again folks? Anyone in the People's Republic of New York or member of the cult of Cuomo especially anyone in the local media going to start demanding answers, justifications, and objective for this? New York Gov. Cuomo warns NYC restaurants may have to close again in the fall "We have a much, a much bigger problem in New York City today than any of the surrounding suburbs with a lack of compliance," Cuomo told reporters on a conference call when asked why the state allows indoor dining in other regions and not New York City. The state has cracked down on many restaurants and bars for violating the governor's orders on operating with safety precautions to prevent the spread of the virus. New York has suspended the liquor licenses of nearly 150 bars for violating the orders, according to a press release Monday. Other restaurants have received citations, many in the New York City area, and are subject to fines up to $10,000 per violation. "I understand the inconvenience that many businesses are dealing with going through this. And I understand many businesses are under economic hardship and they feel that if they can't get back to full operating that they are going to have issues," Cuomo said on the call. However, he indicated that a decision could come later as the weather turns cold and added that "in this environment, two weeks is what a year used to be. Something changes every two weeks." The infection rate across New York has remained low over the last 12 consecutive days. The so-called positivity rate, or the percentage of total tests that are positive, below 1%, an indication that the virus is under control in the area. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio reported earlier Wednesday that the city recorded its lowest daily infection rate to date at 0.24%. https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2020/08/19/new-york-gov-cuomo-warns-nyc-restaurants-may-have-to-close-again-in-the-fall.html The CDC said at <5% positive test rate we should be full normal. But of course, question nothing. Free signed copies of the Fuhrer's book for any Karens that freak out on kids not wearing masks.

I think it’s awesome that Governor Cuomo “understands the inconvenience” that being driven to bankruptcy causes. That’s really the problem—total financial devastation is an “inconvenience”. Spoken like a true government lifer. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiotAct Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Well this is, um... concerning: https://www.wivb.com/news/local-news/buffalo/city-of-buffalo-announces-new-student-outreach-effort/?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=socialflow&utm_medium=referral ” Starting this weekend, city officials will be going door-to-door in the University Heights neighborhood to check on students. They’ll also inspect homes to make sure the appropriate number of people are living in a rented unit at a time. Mayor Brown says a lot of colleges are seeing spikes in COVID cases around the country and having to shut down because of it. He says he wants to do whatever is necessary to prevent that from happening here.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
