This is a reality that is being talked about because this crisis continues to grow.

We're all deeply concerned about the direction and the trajectory, even as we get new information daily and hourly and we're tryingto better understand the specific trajectory quite clear.

This is a fast growing crisis, in my view.

I think the right guidance to give all New Yorkers is even though a decision has not yet been made by the city or by the state.

I think New Yorkers should be prepared right now for the possibility of a shelter in place order.

It has not happened yet, but it is definitely a possibility at this point.

I believe that decision should be name made in the next 48 hours, and it's a very, very difficult decision.

I want to emphasize that it is difficult anywhere in the United States of America.

It is particularly difficult Ah, in a city with such a large population so densely populated together.

But I think the point is come with that decision does have to be made.

We will be communicating closely with State, obviously as a decision we want to make in common, and I think it's just right to let people know that there is that possibility.
