1. Mayor Adams tests positive for COVID
On his 100th day in office, Mayor Eric Adams tested positive for COVID-19, his press secretary Fabien Levy said in a statement on Sunday.
"This morning, Mayor Adams woke up with a raspy voice and, out of an abundance of caution, took a PCR test that has now come back positive," Levy said. "At this time, the mayor has no other symptoms, but he is already isolating and will be canceling all public events for the remainder of the week."
2. "This is an FDR moment": Adams marks his 100th day
Prior to his COVID diagnosis, Mayor Eric Adams had planned a busy day to mark his 100th day in office. Adams' first three months as mayor have been marked by public safety issues and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
“This is an FDR moment. We have some troubling indicators: unemployment, foreclosures, people who are on an eviction list, crime,” Adams said in an interview with PIX11 Sunday, adding he planned to give a speech marking his first 100 days laying out the policies he’s introduced and what his administration will do going forward.
