Battle lines drawn amid new Covid clusters in NYC: Guest Dov Hikind

Here Now the News with Jerry Barmash

New York City is seeing a surge in coronavirus cases in several zip codes, primarily in Orthodox Jewish communities of Brooklyn, where many took to the street in anger of the government's rollback of restarting pandemic efforts. They also skipped any social distancing protocols and beat up on a journalist. Dov Hikind, is a former assemblyman from Borough Park, where recent protests took place. He hasn’t been shy about making his views known, and this time was no different as he addressed the violence, the community's failing to comply with masks and the leaders who went too far in their actions.
