NYC mayor Eric Adams, 61, defended his decision to mask children under the age of five, but experts say he should be removed from office for pushing the mandate with no strong evidence behind it.
Democratic New York State Senate candidate Danyela Souza Egorov said on Tuesday she is running for office because New York has not prioritized children during this entire pandemic.
Eric Adams was confronted by angry parents on Sunday night as he attended a Broadway show, with parents furious at his refusal to lift the mask mandate for children.
