New York Mayor Eric Adams said Wednesday that he won’t be reinstating the mask mandate despite the city health commissioner’s advisory amid a rise in the number of daily cases and the official current alert level turning “high.”
Adams replied flatly with a “No,” when asked during a press conference if he would recommend reinstating the mask mandate, specifically in schools. “I’m proud of what we’re doing and how we’re not allowing COVID to outsmart us. We’re staying prepared and not panicking,” he said.
