COVID-19 infections continue to remain high across the city, but the number of cases are dropping sharply, Mayor Eric Adams said Tuesday.
Adams relayed that the city has one of the highest vaccination rates in the country currently, with 16 million doses administered and at least 2.5 million booster shots. The mayor said that this indicated that citizens were doing their part in combating the virus, which in turn would help get NYC back on its pre-pandemic track.
