It is still inconceivable to me that the front line workers have a lower infection rate than the general population. The nurses and doctors who are in an emergency room have a lower infection rate than the general population. The transit workers driving the subways have a lower infection rate than the general population. The police have a lower infection rate than the general population because they use the PPE. It works. Why you wouldn't use it, there is no legitimate, rational explanation. 'Well, I don't like the way it looks.' You know what? Paint something on the mask, right. Get a new color. You know, you can get a designer mask. It's such a — the opposition is so trivial and nonsensical relative to the risk. You could get sick, you could make somebody else sick even if you think you're superman or superwoman, you could bring the virus home and get someone sick and it winds up killing them. So it's just — it's not smart. It's not smart. My colleague Melissa DeRosa said yesterday, it's stupid. That's another way of saying not smart, sort of the hyper-New York way of saying that. Takes less words.”
