Vaccination in New York City is basically only occurring during regular business hours. Very little on weekends. Almost none on holidays. We are in a war-like situation. We need to be vaccinating TWENTY FOUR-SEVEN. We are losing precious time.

this criticism of mike schmidt @nytmike is nutty & quite likely borne out of jealousy. the guy has broken a gazillion important stories over the past few years. the journalists i see criticizing him have broken zero stories and are just armchair aggregators and second guessers.
