NSTworld NewYork mayor Bill de Blasio on Thursday urged all of the city’s residents to cover their faces when outside and near others to help stop the spread of the Covid19 coronavirus.

“Let’s be clear. This is a face covering. It could be a scarf. It could be something you create yourself at home. It could be a bandana,” de Blasio told reporters.

As of Thursday evening, the United States had a total of more than 242,000 declared cases and over 5,800 fatalities, according to a running tally by Johns Hopkins University. President Donald Trump told reporters at his daily White House briefing on the coronavirus that he wasn’t considering making it mandatory for all Americans to cover their faces.
