And surgery patients should be tested before they are admitted, NYSNA said. “New York’s health care system was woefully unprepared for this…

New York City schools will be closed for the rest of the year, de Blasio says

April 12, 2020

New York City’s 1.1 million-pupil public school system will be closed for the rest of the school year as the city struggles to contain the coronavirus outbreak, Mayor Bill de Blasio announced Saturday. “It was not an easy decision to close schools, de Blasio said, “but it is the right decision and it’s also a decision made a little clearer by the fact that the distance learning is working more and more every day.” The goal is to reopen school sites by September, and high school graduates may be denied a commencement ceremony, de Blasio said.

As with record claims for unemployment, the latest numbers bear little information on the current state of the economy, making it difficult for investors to value financial assets. “No one has ever experienced anything like this,” Bruce Bittles, chief investment strategist at Baird, said by phone. “We’re …
