Mediaite reports:

Newly-elected New York City Mayor Eric Adams confidently told viewers of Morning Joe that it is “time to live with Covid” Monday morning while discussing plans to keep the city open until the potentially deadly contagion eventually dissipates.

“We have to live with covid and modify our behavior because if another variant comes out, what are we going to do? We spent $11 trillion on covid. We don’t have another $11 trillion.”

“It’s time to live with Covid,” Adams insisted, “and build systems around Covid until it dissipates and leaves us. Until then, the city has to operate.”
