New Yorkers should avoid using subways, but if they have to use them they should avoid rush hour, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said at a press conference on March 10.

De Blasio said officials are recommending people work from home if they can, adding that people who are feeling sick should not leave their residences. If people have to go to work in-person, they should try to walk, he added.
