The New York Daily News reports:
A Queens sex club, ignoring the steady rise in citywide COVID-19 cases and guidelines to slow the spread, was busted early Sunday for an illegal party decked out with the trappings of a modern-day Roman orgy. Deputies from the city’s Sheriff’s Office found over 80 people without masks at the illicit underground club on at 12:05 a.m. Sunday, officials said.
Participants were drinking and disregarding social distancing in a room that featured a buffet, boxes of condoms — and a backroom lined with mattresses. Three couples were having sex in the small backroom, officials said. The orgy-like event was hosted by Caligula New York, a club that advertises itself as the “Hottest Swingers Club in New York.”
