(ANSA) - WASHINGTON, DEC 20 - New York could revise the plans for the traditional New Year's Eve celebrations in Times Square, an attraction for hundreds of thousands of Big Apple citizens and tourists.
A decision will be before Christmas, announced Big Apple mayor Billde Blasio.
The event for the iconic countdown could thus be skipped or further resized, given the risks linked to the spread of the Omicron variant of Covid.
In New York, where a record number is recorded every day, a peak in infections is expected in the coming weeks.
