Mayor DiBlasio on MSNBC currently discussing CV and answering questions.
Brief transcript of what his answer were. You can probably deduce the questions:
Saint Patrick's Day - outside event, less suceptibility to spread of infection, so not cancelling yet. All outdoor events "safer."
Don't want to shut down the lives of healthy population, but want to place barriers to protect less healthy and older population.
Transmissibilty (new word he recently learned) = person to person close contact spread, not from people way across the room.
Transparency - test significant people, travelers, people who have been in contact with others or in locations where present.
If have initials symptoms, start with self isolation.
Trying to avoid degradation of every day life and financial life, and promote survivability for citizens.
He hopes to not have to use powers (that he does have) to shut down everything.
