he will be remembered the world over as one of the most trying things of 2020 by the end of march the country has the hardest was the united states and new york city in particular. my friend maria lives in new york i've asked for its record a bit of her life during the pandemic. hi my name is mario out and she. talking to you from new york which is the global epicenter of. the damage so this is cost him this is my 15 month old son who's playing by who's solved as are most of the other kids in the park and normally there wouldn't be a single patch of grass available to sit on the little erie out here. so corrin team in new york is a little bizarre because there's there's like 2 worlds for 8 so we're in a world 2 where we feel very isolated we're working from home but we're still working and then there's this like other part of new york that we don't see when

you look at like the map of how it is living some of the wealthier neighborhoods it's been far more contained and the numbers are much lower than some of the poor neighborhoods it's like 2 different worlds like i don't know what's going on over there talk to be honest. the city. i got married i moved to new york 10 years ago before that i was toronto that's where i grew up or since i got to new york it's like this is a bizarre. disgusting. incredible place and you just get caught. and our problem. is to work on wall street we live in park slope in brooklyn. so you go to brooklyn and you see like $5000000.00 apartments and one block over the. like

a project where it's like people don't have jobs they've been impacted badly because there's no hospitals there we're fortunate that we both work in technology it's very easy for us to work at home if you have a blue collar job you gotta go and those are very blue collar neighborhoods. just 2 days ago good family friend he passed away from kobe that he was in his sixty's and his daughter my eyes position was i'm for i stove she brought it home everyone got sick but with mild symptoms and he got sick and died we're in this situation where . there are 3. patrol people and just kind of walking and making sure that people are keeping their distance we actually wanted to get out because everywhere you look at the trajectory chart on up but not like. right at new york it was like a hospital so we created to you know what if you just get out so in the midst of

this planning and talking about it you know i think and i shut down the border security or hoping that if he called window to god he ordered and during that time . i think it's much that in the most implicit way like help terrorists when you're setting that matter well i'm scared of getting sick i'm scared of getting my son sad and scared of anyone in my family getting sick. i was carried out like crying that being and right. there a sense i wake up every morning i'm like a new day going to be great and then by the end of the day don't like to be on your back today and i feel like that's our whole i slowly closing in i don't. disagree a disease this is a good is a very good if you read book in hospital god you superior to put the body in the in 18 will ya. please dayside this is

a real. after talking to maria i looked at new york's most affected areas and just like she said they were predominantly poor neighborhoods and the top of that list was unpressed means. rats a bit here on parlor which is not the way to the school and there is a jihad barracks moving bodies i've tracked that's right city the city usually has been during our hour 47 that's earth day and the hour every day or day of 7 or 8. per day. just from the virus that's why we're so inundated. by father started business in 1940 s. answer. i was curious and care whether it's welfare reason i was 300.

there was no consequence of this or was this rules of our garbage there's a number of hospitals have closed out over the years it's just more difficult for 'd one hospital to cover the area that. elmhurst became the focal point because right in the beginning they had 13 deaths a quarterback there are 4 or 5 days old this are just kind of exploring their family so it was almost like it's a hospital because it was sacked. and they can't go into the hospital to visit them because the us was closed to families you know the person dies and nobody can stop it and we're at rest so it's all we care it's really it's not me going to the hospital and that's the last i miss all of these team member die yes. but i do take photos for folks i mean i've had a few people. i don't like the liability aspect of it per se but i still i feel she's

a great source not letting anybody at you know what the general sense aries who will lead a raft like 2 or 3 people and yes stay in your car and watch the burial there so of course 'd that account at least an no or ours like watches have one or. the 3rd round i heard him say so they've got a least 3 rows and it's high we're working with can source outside of the state because they're just so inundated here you can't get a commission box so we had it marked for the promised city and 'd the hospital that's how close they have 3 or 6 days to move their uncles or they don't have a city burial so unlike anything i had to 'd say to my father ever seen anything quite like this down there i mean i've dealt with plane crashes 911 this is just every day it's there in 20 families coming in that they want to be out the ski helpless. i'm

a legal how many deaths of athens certainly in our community we probably don't know 100 year olds in the last 2 weeks and we have more than 100 more to go i'm going to do probably almost as much work 'd inside for more than ideal listeria within the best we can and we have a small staff years organise working around the clock. you know we're exhausted. i sleep myself here at all i worry a little about my father and my uncle they say they're going straight since. they're trying to be careful analysts made 'd money 'd says my son sakhi alison yes he does yard me and i have 8 treatments that my wife may. mean that i am a pink one and i haven't added any great ones. since you want me to take the bait or buy such high fat. i don't have time to there's about

142 of all this area but they will be right i had a little over 6 o'clock in the am breakfast and i think since it's a busy have no science. maybe look back on this one to start. a different way. for now it's just. so you just keep going. i wonder why for areas such disproportionately high mortality rates i restarted keesha bullis in the same area one patient 0 on. iran you know as magna carta freedom reason when there are. good you have to put it out. action seeing as how many. see that we are have our mask on and a ring round ring in your which i considered one of them were area out west

and westchester made the news because. lawyer and you rest now being known as patient 0 to measure to manhattan and that's how it started spreading the new york. heart. managed to get our own or made. me. wish that my sister works for a new york presbyterian hospital she has been now is already going to be on. already neymar my uncle who have been proclaimed. michael vick 19 it's unfortunate that there are 16 the number and that it's a lot of war and black and spanish and me and minority people that are getting it who are. the core population are dying one as in everyday circumstances when you go to

a hospital in new york city and probably in any other age the 1st thing they actually raised you having been a 4 or 5 different times that i've been we have not been able to get health insurance yet they're telling you you can give your health insurance but if you're not working how do you know for like a 100 or 2000 knowledge journey. they don't take your case seriously when you don't have insurance because that the end of the day or the hospital to look at how are they going to get countries with universal have here we are treated in. a more prevented that level which is a lower to the hospitals really evaluate based on the population how many hospitals

should be there not in the ranch it's focused on money we have one hospital money your malvern in hospital and from last year they have been tied into shut it down they feel that it's not making enough money so therefore it's not needed all all that the only hospital in mount vernon are very overpopulated who are area i definitely do that because the hospitals are or are they are in the areas that give them more income. and not rich i rarely in the south side i remember and i'm not rich that's considered or a bad area. you know where. people get shot at warners

or and. i guess knows and you almost become immune to it in. a mirror into the fact that ok they're going to close down the only hospital and people use a. status aid but i wonder when all of this is out over and we're all just involved right back to business as usual. i hope that we come out of this being kinder gentler to each other and that the hospitals is there and. follow me here and not just. and that we no longer are each other and richer or or you know lappers is why. because we're all dying from it it doesn't it's really.

we go to work so you stay home.

and just want. to. do 1st and does other good for you but always goes to with an exorcist right there if we didn't rush mean if you. got it would you put out stuff to the extent are. you ready for the thought. this is how we used to know the russian that i. like this. like this. but the corona pandemic has given us a different russian ballet to choose all costumes just to kitchen past the stage.

but it isn't you but there's even a physics school or crew member who's tonight's you know it's a more busy months ago and what they. do yeah it's that. you know i actually skate no interest in ash they were. easier because it's. yet to get him and his national committees. design video dances from high enough he said that he quickly went viral. and proved that cell phones are lation is no reason to feel guilty or why it is. he did us. as much getting to us was going to be as good at. getting out on the bus. for those issues and you go to know you could overcome.
