COVID cases decrease in Sunset Park
Sunset Park continues to see a decrease in COVID-19 cases, Mayor Bill de Blasio said Wednesday.
Earlier in August, 4.2 percent of tests in Sunset Park came back positive for the coronavirus, one of the highest rates in the city.
“Today, the latest measure from Sunset Park [is a] 1.30 percent positivity rate in that community,” de Blasio said. “So, that’s an amazing example how quickly you can turn things around if you put the effort in the right place.”
