For much of the public, that fight was won long ago. By now, COVID is a mere background threat, causing far less serious illness and death than other diseases. On Tuesday, the number of COVID deaths was just 56 <em>nationwide<\/em>; cancer claims 1,600 lives a day.  <\/p>\n<p>In the city, meanwhile, the seven-day average of confirmed daily COVID deaths Wednesday was just <em>four<\/em> \u2014 about the same as the average number of daily shootings this year. And with fatalities from the virus falling even more each day, crime is clearly becoming a greater threat. What\u2019s the city\u2019s crime alert status?<\/p>\n<p>Alas, some pols (mostly Democrats) get their jollies from ceaselessly crying \u201cpandemic.\u201d  Adams and Gov. Kathy Hochul took way too long to begin easing COVID mandates, punishing New Yorkers unnecessarily.<\/p>\n<p>This month, Hochul extended the state\u2019s COVID disaster \u201cemergency\u201d yet again. And she <em>still <\/em>demands masks on public transportation, though riders are increasingly ignoring her. <\/p>\n<p>Adams, meanwhile, is keeping the city\u2019s employee-vax mandate in place, even though he\u2019s not enforcing it. Even scared-of-their-shadow Broadway theater operators are lifting their mask mandates starting July 1.<\/p>\n<p>The pols <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>arently love the extra power and the image of themselves as leaders that comes with such \u201cemergencies.\u201d Look at the high praise disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo won from his early-pandemic pressers; he even wrote a book on pandemic \u201cleadership\u201d \u2014 even as he was fueling deaths at nursing homes by sending them COVID-positive patients.<\/p>\n<p>That may be why Biden is already warning of a second viral outbreak. It has nothing to do with the actual pandemic \u2014 it\u2019s all political.\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
