Embattled NYC mayor Eric Adams tests positive for covid

Mayor has tested positive for a day after comparing himself to a Biblical figure and asking for church's prayers amid mounting corruption scandals.

The mayor tested positive for the virus on Monday after he saying he was 'not feeling well,' according to a spokesperson for City Hall.

This comes after Adams visited several East New York churches over the weekend, including Changing Lives Christian Center and Authority Evangelical Ministry's Sunday service, as part of an effort to strengthen ties between city leadership and the city's religious communities.
