We had NO federal help with testing early on. That could have helped us track the spread across communities and learn which jobs and demographics were hardest hit. We’ll get the answers on our own, fighting this disease in a smarter way. — PolitiTweet.org

Starting next week we will offer antibody tests at sites in five neighborhoods: Morrisania, East New York, Concord, Upper Manhattan, and Long Island City. We’ll perform 70,000 in May and 70,000 in June. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Eric Adams @NYCMayor

We’re announcing 140,000 MORE for New Yorkers in partnership with BioReference. We will perform 280,000 antibody tests in the coming weeks and months. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Eric Adams @NYCMayor

We already announced 140,000 antibody tests for health care workers and first responders from our partnership with the CDC and Health and Human Services. That testing starts next week. — PolitiTweet.org

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) tests tell you whether you have the disease right now. The antibody test tells you if you’ve previously been exposed AND helps us understand how to beat this disease. We’re going to build up antibody testing alongside our PCR testing capacity. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Eric Adams @NYCMayor

There’s so much uncertainty when it comes to COVID-19. The lack of testing from the federal government has been THE problem. In New York City we are DONE letting the federal government drop the ball. Every day more New Yorkers are getting tested. It’s the key to moving forward. — PolitiTweet.org

Cities across the planet aren’t waiting to take action. Working with @c40cities we’ve laid out resiliency policies and a plan for an economy focused on green jobs, reducing pollution and emissions and making sure everyone gets their fair share. We need this on a global scale. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Eric Adams @NYCMayor

COVID-19 has proven that we MUST come together around the world to address the dangers to health and safety from climate change. We’re living through what happens when our country isn’t prepared. If we don’t work together, global warming will overtake us. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Eric Adams @NYCMayor

Now’s the time to go even further. Tenants are hurting. We need to let every New Yorker who needs it to be able to defer rent payments for up to 12 months. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Eric Adams @NYCMayor

YES! Yes! Yes! Yes! From putting security deposits towards rent to expanding eviction bans, we’ve been pushing Albany to take bold action for tenants. Thank you @NYGovCuomo for heeding the call. — PolitiTweet.org

When you stop and think about what our nurses have done throughout this crisis — it’s just remarkable. New York City will never forget what they’ve done to save lives. We applaud them on #NationalNursesDay — and every day. #ThankYouNurses https://t.co/zZU7EuCt35 — PolitiTweet.org

This virus exploits our weaknesses. We cannot allow it to resurface. Let’s handle this restart correctly. Take a step, get it right and move forward together, and remember that keyword: moderation. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Eric Adams @NYCMayor

We are also building up our distribution of free face masks, getting 7.5 million face coverings to the New Yorkers who need them. We’ll be out in parks and public spaces across the city. Go to https://t.co/0C1cWl0jvO to find one near you. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Eric Adams @NYCMayor

Over the last few days, we’ve opened 7 miles of #OpenStreets and we’re opening more tomorrow. They’ll reach neighborhoods from the Lower East Side to Jackson Heights where open space is hard to come by. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Eric Adams @NYCMayor

We’re convening Sector Advisory Councils to give real-world input on how policies will play out on the ground. They’ll focus on small businesses, labor, tourism and more. We want ideas from every corner of our city and the people who know their industries and communities best. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Eric Adams @NYCMayor

How do we restart? One simple word: MODERATION. There’s no on/off switch. Our restart will happen gradually and in stages. We CANNOT rush this, or lives will be put at risk. — PolitiTweet.org
