It was a beautiful sunny spring Sunday today and some Roosevelt Island ladies were out at the Cornell Cafe with their masks on and practicing social distancing from each other.

But some people were not wearing masks outdoors and walking a bit to close to others.
@Rooseveltisland @Rooseveltisland there’s a lot of people outside without face coverings. They’re jogging, walking, cycling with close proximity to others. Where is the enforcement of the current law that mandates face coverings?Joanna Sawruk (@joannamkim) April 19, 2020
Thanks for this note. Agreed.Gloria Herman (@gloriaetherman) April 19, 2020
That is no true. Governor said it is outside as well especially encountering people closer than 6 feet to you.Gloria Herman (@gloriaetherman) April 19, 2020
fwiw I generally wear masks when going to public places but I definitely don’t want the cops hassling me if i happen to be outside without one.Tapan Parikh (@tap2k) April 19, 2020
A very important perspective for @RIOCny @Rooseveltisland @NYCMayorsOffice @NYGovCuomo @galeabrewer to consider https://t.co/4FC61UBJOmTapan Parikh (@tap2k) April 7, 2020
Nice. I tried going out 37 days ago and there were too many people out NOT wearing masks. Social distancing is opt in and 6 feet is not enough distance. This video shows indoor air-borne particles and how long they linger. https://t.co/3sk6ZRGogo #StaySafeStayHealthyJonn Nubian (@JonnNubian) April 19, 2020

Stay inside and stay safe.
