“Now that we have entered Phase 4 of New York City’s reopening plan, I am pleased to see more establishments are opening up, but it is imperative that we remain vigilant in our efforts to combat the COVID-19 pandemic,” said State Senator Joseph P. Addabbo, Jr. “Although many indoor activities remain closed — like dining, malls and museums — we have come so far from being the epicenter of cases and deaths in the United States. That is because of the strength and understanding of New Yorkers. I encourage people to safely enjoy the summer with many of the amazing outdoor activities they can take part in like visiting the Rockaway beaches or the Queens Zoo. By working together, we can move forward safely to resuming a normal lifestyle.”
