Positive coronavirus tests in New York City recently went above 3%, causing Mayor Bill de Blasio to impose fines for those who do not wear masks in public.
Nine zip codes have seen a rise in coronavirus cases, including Brooklyn, Queens, and Orthodox Jewish neighborhoods....De Blasio said the city does “not want to fine people.” City workers will provide free masks for people.
If the person refuses the mask, then the city will issue them a fine of up to $1,000.
De Blasio also threatened private schools with closure if they “don’t follow rules such as mask use and maintaining at least 6 feet of distance between individuals.”
The city will begin monthly random tests in schools next week. Almost half of the city’s schools chose to do remote learning.....

Just another reason to avoid the big apple.
"The mask". Indeed.
This retromingent commie needs a piece of lead, just like Maduro. It would preclude a lot of grief.
what % goes to his wife?
and his daughter?
and her friends?
and the DNC tithes?
and payoffs to MS-13?
NYC is going down the tubes.
exactly, he killed the economy for the poor and working class
I live here and I couldn’t give a #### about his edicts.
typical FR response “you won’t talk that way when you get your first ticket”
yeah I will cause i’m not a b.tch and i’m certainly not de blasio’s (that fake italian ####) b.tch.
Somebody’s gotta take a stand some time.
JUST typing away on FR ain’t doing a #### of a lot of good without any outside action.
Wait. The Mayor can just invent a $1000 fine? This is constitutional in New York State?
Rancher closes the barn door after all the animals have escaped.
I hate that the good people like you in NYC are stuck with the guy.
“I have a medical issue which precludes me from wearing a mask.”
But if you mug someone you get detained and released the same day with no bail
Maybe just call a school a restaurant and let the kids come back to school with no masks.
Test me...If I don’t have the virus...I don’t need a mask. And you have absolutely no right to dictate such to a well person.
NYC is a socialist state much like the Soviet union. That’s why at the Democrap national convention AOC read the 1936 Soviet union constitution or as it’s better know, the Stalin constitution
That hard up for money or Gestapo/Marxist power-tripping. Either case, sh*thole status for NYC is assured.
New York is getting pandemic fatigue and is relaxing their efforts to conform to the strict protocols. New cases are up approximately 100 more per day compared to a week ago. Those numbers could go higher. It would be smart to understand who are the latest that are affecting the numbers. It would be smart to understand what they are doing. However, for clowns like De Blasio, you never get a straight story because he does not care about anything except his quest for more power.
Will he pay the fine next time HE is without a mask?
Possibly diseased city "workers". Are these newly employed "workers" or were they just sitting around anticipating this important endeavor?
