Are there lots of people in my boat who are working as developers remotely in the US or in NYC and SV?
Hey! I am a 25 year old Norwegian with a passion for languages and different cultures. I am going to be visiting NYC next summer for some weeks, and I would love to get the opportunity to talk to some people here on this subreddit that are from the city.
If you need help with any of the languages I know, I would be more than happy to help.
Other than languages, I particularly like climbing, food, movies, and psychology (which I am studying). In addition to those topics, I think I can talk about pretty much anything.
We could talk on Discord or whichever platform you prefer. Send me a me a DM here on Reddit if you're interested!
This is what we have so far: https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedysta:Wil540_art/Pandemia_COVID-19_w_Nowym_Jorku
I want to add a couple sentences at the end that say: "In New York City vaccines were available to all residents of the city by summer 2021.
On August 23, 2021, the FDA approved Comirnaty (COVID-19 Vaccine), previously known as Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine."
Thank you!
Hello Bangladesh reddit community,
I am looking for a volunteer translator. I am writing an article of COVID-19 in NYC for the Bangladesh wikipedia. You can learn more about this project here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_COVID-19/SureWeCan_COVID19_Task_Force
This is the text I am looking to have translated into Bengali:
"COVID-19 pandemic in New York City
The first case relating to the COVID-19 pandemic was confirmed in New York City in March 2020 by a woman who had recently traveled to New York City from Iran, a country already seriously affected by the pandemic at the time. Nearly a month later, the metropolitan area was the worst-affected area in the country. By April, the city had more confirmed coronavirus cases than China, the U.K., or Iran, and by May, had more cases than any country other than the United States.
On March 20, the governor's office issued an executive order closing down non-essential businesses. The city's public transportation system remained open but experienced crowding due to reduced transit service and an increase of homeless persons seeking shelter on the subway.
By April, hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers were out of work with lost tax revenues estimated to run into the billions. Low income jobs in the retail, transportation and restaurant sectors are especially affected. The drop in income, sales tax and tourism revenues including hotel tax revenue may cost the city up to $10 billion. Mayor Bill de Blasio has said the city's unemployment system collapsed following a surge in claims and it will require federal assistance to maintain basic services.
The ongoing pandemic is the deadliest disaster by death toll in the history of New York City.
In December 2020, the New York City healthcare system began administering the Coronavirus vaccine to high-risk patients and first responders such as doctors and nurses. The city deemed this Phase 1a. In January 11th 2021, the city entered Phase 1b to include people ages 65 and older and grocery workers, as well as teachers, first responders, public transit workers, and corrections officers. In February 2021, New York City expanded the Phase1b vaccine pool eligibility to include restaurant workers (including delivery) and taxi drivers. In New York City vaccines were available to all residents of the city by summer 2021.
On August 23, 2021, the FDA approved

A quick check of census data shows there are still thousands of people who identify as English, Scottish, or Dutch ancestry living in the city, especially in Manhattan. I wonder if anybody has a family who has been in NYC for centuries?
I’m Eloisa James, New York Times bestselling author of historical romance. I’m also the Chair of English at Fordham University, so I tackle between teaching Shakespeare and Creative Writing. I live in New York City, so this has been a crazy semester: I took my department on-line, waved goodbye to students, and cancelled my book tour for SAY NO TO THE DUKE. One of my kids sheltered with us, we’re almost finished with 12 seasons of Bones. I love to bake, so I also watched the Great British Bake-off, and (yes!) read romance to escape all the sirens going by on Broadway.

I'd like to preface this by stating that remote learning was absolutely detrimental to the mental health of myself, my friends, and my peers at school. Despite this, the present conditions within schools necessitates a temporary return to remote learning; if not because of public health, then because of learning loss.
A story of my day:
- I arrived at school and promptly went to Study Hall. I knew that some of my teachers would be absent because they had announced it on Google Classroom earlier in the day. At our school there is a board in front of the auditorium with the list of teachers and seating sections for students within study hall: today there were 14 absent teachers 1st period. There are 11 seatable sections within the auditorium ... THREE CLASSES sat on the stage. Study hall has become a super spreader event -- I'll get to this in a moment.
- Second period I had another absent teacher. More of the same from 1st period. It was around this time that 25% of kids I know, including myself, realized that there were no rules being enforced outside of attendance at the start of the period, and that cutting lass was ridiculously easy. We left -- there was functionally no learning occurring within study hall, and health conditions were safer outside of the auditorium. It was well beyond max capacity.
- Third period I had a normal class period. Hooray! First thing the teacher did was pass out COVID tests because we had all been close contacts to a COVID-positive student in our class. 4 more teachers would pass out COVID tests throughout the day, which were to be taken at home. The school started running low on tests, and rules had to be refined to ration.
- "To be taken at home." Ya ... students don't listen. 90% of the bathrooms were full of students swabbing their noses and taking their tests. I had one kid ask me -- with his mask down, by the way -- whether a "faint line was positive," proceeding to show me his positive COVID test. I told him to go the nurse. One student tested positive IN THE AUDITORIUM, and a few students started screaming and ran away from him. There was now a lack of available seats given there was a COVID-positive student within the middle of the auditorium. They're now planning on having teachers give up their free periods to act as substitute teachers because the auditorium is simply not safe enough.
- Classes that I did attend were quiet and empty. Students are staying home because of risk of COVID without testing pos
