NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) Mayor Bill de Blasio on Tuesday girded New Yorkers for a long, hard fight against the coronavirus.
I have to be honest about the fact that we do not expect this to go quickly, and I wish we did, but we dont, de Blasio said. But I have to respectfully disagree with (President Donald Trump when he says), as he said earlier today, that hes not looking at months for this crisis. I have to say, Mr. President, I wish that was the case for New York City, I hope thats the case for the other parts of the country, but right now we are looking at months.
De Blasio had previously said estimates on New York Citys medical supplies lasting to the end of the month did not match the increased rate of infection, and supplies were not expected to last the week.
We are doing all we can just to get through March right now, particularly in terms of our health care system, he said. April will unquestionably be worse than March, and right now, my fear is May could be worse than April. Thats the reality were facing. I think the notion that we could be quote-unquote back to normal in April is absolutely inconceivable at this point.

All NYers must be banned?
Dude, have you seen the map for Upstate?
Jeez.
Of course, if it really is working that way, and all NY doctors used it, NY would have hospital beds and ventilators to spare.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
It is working that way, but it is politically incoprrect medicine.
The left has to be placated with science, because they want the pandemic to run right into the November election. So does Red China.
So the letter is authentic, and it has resulted in Dr. Oz initiating a scientific study while treating patients in New York City. Big News:

And if you are over 60 with CV-19, and you want to live, you find a doctor who will give you the cure.
Queens and Brooklyn have the highest amount of cases and they are located on that other island, called Long Island.
I watched the video you linked to where Dr Oz interviewed the French doctor, one of the most esteemed epidemiologists in the world.
I could help but notice that he touched his hands to his face and beard throughout the interview. That alone will no doubt have the left dismissing him as a quack. It’s a habit that’s hard to kick though, speaking from personal experience.
I would note Dr. Oz misinterpreted him when he spoke later on Fox News (on Hannity, I think). He said that the French doctor considered it unethical not to offer his treatment, which seemed a stretch when I heard it. What the doctor actually said is that a trial with a placebo arm when dealing with a deadly disease should be considered unethical. Instead, one or more different current treatments should be compared with the proposed new treatment. That way, it made more sense. You shouldn’t put someone who is likely to die without treatment on a placebo.
Saw a video of people packed in the subway like sardines. This was yesterday. How in Hades do they expect the situation to get better unless they shut down mass transit??
Democrat cities in democrat states are the worst... De Blasio might be right.
It’s time for New York businesses to start taking temps at the door... Create sane incentives rather than encouraging pity party politics. This disease will soon move from ‘elites’ who travel to underclass members who think ‘the rule don’t apply to me’...
In short liberal cities will have to change quickly to defeat this before ‘stage II’ set in.
Whatever one may say about the froggy doctor, he did save lives with his treatment regime, and proved it.
And that’s exactly why the good froggy and anyone who applies this theraputic regime is going to catch hell.
Its too simple you see, it needs to be more expensive , it needs to be more like remdesivir or many other remedies now being touted by the profiteering so they can make billions of dollars in a few months.The jostling among them is like a heard of squealing swine come to trough over at FDA, as they lobby against Hydroxi-Chloroquine therapy.
To make those billions the pandemic needs to be extended for months you see, right into the November election.
F**k them all.
This Hydroxi-Chloroquine therapy is going to go on line gang busters, if not sabotaged by the left at the state level, and will lead the way to the president’s initiative to open America for business once again.
The alternative is to create an America completely dependent on government. We will have achieved a socialist state overnight, just as Red China and the Demoncrap Left have wanted, their Dystopia achieved. A nation run by the very deep state autocrats who tried to falsely impeach a duly elected President of the United States.
And YOU are going to lay down for that?
Take your pills. And be glad you have them.
The only people who might need a ventilator are the serious/critically ill. Of a total of 59,447 active cases ACROSS THE ENTIRE COUNTRY NOT JUST NY, there are 1307 categorized as such. And not all those cases require ventilation.
This is fearmongering for political purposes. Facts are our friend.
Isn't that exactly what the government did to the Tuskegee Airmen?
LOL!
Maybe they can sanitize the entire place ala Wuhan sprayers/fumigators.
It’s WAY overdue, for a REALLY good scrubbing down.
NYC will never be back to normal, it’s a sanctuary city.
Wasn’t just de Blasio. He wanted to lock down NYC eeeks ago and Cuomo said no.
Hey Bill, its not ALL about you.
¡Si!
What do the airmen have to do with anything happenng now?
I don’t know, but it sounds like you know, so why ask me?
