As the city and the state look to get control of the coronavirus surge in parts of the city, additional restrictions go into effect prohibiting mass gatherings. The new rules cause confusion and lead to protests on the streets of Borough Park, Brooklyn. NY1’s Zack Fink, Courtney Gross, and Bob Hardt discuss the handling of the crisis and the community backlash.
They also talk about the race for mayor, including Maya Wiley’s official launch and how ranked-choice voting will change candidates’ campaign playbooks.
