The main goal of the closings was to flatten and delay the virus case curve. People are still going to get sick.
There are likely going to be 2-4 humps over the next 6 months as different parts of the economy are opened, closed, reopened, closed, reopened. This is all not to completely end the virus, but to let hospitals, better treatments, and a vaccine come into play.
No city can shutdown until everyone is vaccinated. That's reality.

and if Cuomo had not sent infected seniors to a nursing home of people who were not ill, NY would not have become the epicenter of the COVID infection. NYC would have likely reopened by now
more than 5500 deaths from that directive from Cuomo. no wonder DeBlasio trying to make the reopening decision instead of Cuomo.

Utter BS! Trump has nothing to do with Cuomo’s decision to re-open the State again, he knows it and the people know it. This guy is saying essentially, he thinks the people are stupid and he has to treat them like little kids that can’t take care of themselves therefore, he will make the decision if people can work or not, he has money, he’s working, but responsible adults can’t? The more these liberals continue to keep the country shut, the more it helps Trump.

Neither of these men can make the call. Both Cuomo and DeBlasio serve at the pleasure of their Lord and Savior, Donald J. Christ. It is He alone who can open the economy.

If Trump would have listened to his intelligence staff and taken action sooner, and if his administration hadn't bungled so much these businesses might have re-opened 2-3 weeks earlier.

What does DeBlasio have to say about that?
If the the lockdown continues for another 2-3 weeks, many small businesses will not be able to reopen.
