The state of New York and New York City especially has been hit hard by the Corvid-19 pandemic. One of the world's greatest cities, NYC is often the target of crisis manmade and those from nature.

But New Yorkers are resilient and know how to fight back and recover from some of the worst attacks the world has known.

I dedicate this post to those strong New Yorkers fighting coronavirus either in the hospitals or simply by hunkering down and stopping the spread.
