NYC Mayor Eric Adams Holds Virtual Press Event After Positive COVID Test

New York City Mayor Eric Adams tested positive for COVID-19 on Sunday, his 100th day in office, but he felt good enough to hold a virtual press conference on Monday.

Adams’ past week was busy: The mayor attended the annual Gridiron Club dinner in Washington last Saturday, after which dozens of attendees tested positive. He also delivered remarks at the National Action Network convention on Wednesday and attended that night’s gala, appeared in-studio on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” on Thursday before joining Robert De Niro at the ReelAbilities Film Festival, went to the New York Yankees’ opening day Friday and was in Albany on Saturday.
