President Trump today at the White House said to me: “Be nice. Don't be threatening.”
I’m not the first human being, woman, black person or journalist to be told that while doing a job.
My take: Be steady. Stay focused. Remember your purpose. And, always press forward.

While most of our residents understand this, some have refused to listen. So for the good of the city, we are immediately closing high-traffic areas of the city until further notice.

3 weeks ago, @NYCMayor was "encouraging New Yorkers to go on with your lives + get out on the town despite #Coronavirus"
Today, 192 deaths already and look where NYC's terrifying trajectory is heading on the #COVID19 death toll curve...

These are the burdens our medical heroes already face in NYC. It's only going to get harder across the country. Another reason to maintain social distancing policies at least until we have comprehensive testing in place. Not just for our sake—for theirs. newyorker.com/news/our-local…

In January, Donald Trump claimed the coronavirus was “totally under control.”
In February, he said it would disappear.
Now, he’s saying it “could’ve been stopped pretty easily if we had known.”
Donald Trump knew. He failed to act. And now we’re paying the price.

We had projected a need for 110K hospital beds at the apex of this virus.
The rate of infection is INCREASING and the curve has increased.
New projections show we may need 140K beds.
NYS is doing everything we can on every level to slow the spread.
We need your cooperation.

People keep saying COVID-19 is a 'black swan' event - completely unexpected. Then there's this, from 2013 by @kakape: "This shows, that right now in China, there are bats carrying a virus that can directly infect people & cause another SARS pandemic" wired.com/2013/10/bats-next-…
