A stay at home order was lifted and The Big Apple has officially opened. I LOVE NY whenever the weather warms up and public beaches are also free. Nearby my City Island home is Orchard Beach.

As the USA could possibly become a new hub of the outbreak, according to the World Health Organization, Americans need to hear from real physicians and medical experts, not spin doctors.
