Summary
New York City was hit hardest in the early months of the pandemic in the U.S. But after a strict lockdown, the city has enjoyed months of some of the lowest case rates in the country. But as schools reopen and the weather gets cooler, cases have begun to rise.

Drew Armstrong describes the citry's efforts to recover from the outbreak’s devastating toll, and to safely repair its wounded economy.
