De Blasio: Brooklyn hotspots remain more of an issue than in Queens
While COVID-19 hotspots have improved in parts of Queens, Brooklyn numbers remain a concern, Mayor Bill de Blasio revealed.
“In general, we need more and more people to get tested,” he said on Monday, Oct. 19. “I would say that is more of a problem in Brooklyn than in Queens. That’s one of the things I want to see real improvement on this week is that – let’s get a true picture of the community and the reality and folks who haven’t been tested, getting out there and getting tested will really, really help us move forward.”
He added that people needed to practice the basic guidelines such as wearing masks, practicing social distancing, all of the basics.
