'You can't guarantee anything in life,' New York City Mayor Bill De Blasio said at a news briefing.
New York City might begin to shift into the first phase of reopening by the first half of June, allowing construction to resume and retailers to reopen with some restrictions, Mayor Bill de Blasio said Monday.
"There's a real subtle balance that needs to be struck but if the question is do we believe we'll meet all seven state indicators, yes. When? The first half of June," De Blasio said at a news briefing. "There's a real subtle balance that needs to be struck but if the question is do we believe we'll meet all seven state indicators, yes.
