Once the nation’s Covid-19 hot spot, New York City and the rest of the state have been able to pinch the curve and Cuomo said he doesn’t want to jeopardize this progress.
But to correct their argument that more drastic measures need to be taken, Cuomo displayed photographs of the orthodox synagogues showing that hundreds of worshipers had gathered unsafely for services. He also noted that the positivity rate in this Brooklyn neighborhood is running at a worrying 5 percent, compared to 1 percent in the rest of the state.

Meanwhile, the Brooklyn rabbi, who lost both her parents and older sister in Covid-19, was helping City deliver a message to her community that wearing a mask and social distance saves lives.
“I’m more sensitive to it,” Rabbi Robert Blastein of the Parkway Jewish Center at Sea in the Kensington neighborhood told local news website The City.
