Mayor Eric Adams continues to recover at home from COVID, saying his symptoms are mild, and he just has a raspy voice.
Mayor Adams says he will back to attending public events while masked as soon as his five-day isolation is over following his doctor's orders.As COVID cases continue to rise, the mayor says the city will monitor rates as they consider returning to some mandates.
"It's a combination of things we are looking at. We are looking at the infection rates, as well as hospitalization, as well as deaths, and how fast the cases are spreading," Adams said."What happened to me personally should not determine how I make policy." As the COVID rates tick up, New York Health and Hospitals are back to requiring all visitors to show proof of vaccination or a negative test.When it comes to the mayor, the previous health commissioner says Adams should get a negative test before returning to public events.
