In powerful show of defiance of #coronavirus scare, huge crowds gathering in NYC’s Chinatown for ceremony ahead of annual #LunarNewYear parade. Chants of “be strong Wuhan!”
If you are staying away, you are missing out!

This is what NYC needs by early April:
* 3m N95 masks
* 50m surgical masks
* 15k ventilators
* 25m each of:
- surgical gowns
- cover-alls
- gloves
- face masks
We make none of these things in NYC. We need the federal gov’t to mobilize production immediately.
