It was on Monday March 16. The start of the shock wave. Times Square suddenly emptied of its tourists such as streets and train stations abruptly saw fewer travelers pass by to the great amazement of New Yorkers.

All of the sudden, residents began to appear with masked faces and gloved hands as the first calls for containment and the implementation of the measures to close bars and restaurants were immediately launched by State Governor Andrew Cuomo, the mayor of New York, Bill de Blasio, and nationwide, by President Donald Trump.”

Anxiety and distress was visible on the expressions of thousands of residents started to worry about both, their health and financial uncertainties. In the meantime, social distancing and sheltering became the new normal.

These days will leave a dent in the memories of New Yorkers that had no idea the worst still was to come after this challenge we are all enduring started to be compare with the tragedy of September 11. This event turned this time the Big Apple into a complete ghost city, with its streets invaded by a chilling silence.

Also, the words ‘war’ or ‘war zone’ were not commonly mentioned prior to the accelerating rate of new of COVID-19 cases in the City and all over the country like in the world.
