Mayor Bill de Blasio said Thursday that New York City has seen a concerning growth in the numbers of CCP virus infections and that the city would break up large gatherings this Halloween.
During his daily press briefing, de Blasio reported a citywide COVID-19 positive test rate of 2.7 percent, with a rolling seven-day average of positive test rate of 1.92 percent. The Democratic mayor said last month that if the seven-day average reaches 2 percent, the city might have to reevaluate whether to allow indoor dining at restaurants.
