Former New York City coronavirus czar and sex party aficionado Dr. Jay Varma mocked former Mayor Bill de Blasio as a “weenie” who knowingly hurt children by caving to the teachers union, which wanted schools closed during the pandemic.
“He’s a bit of a weenie. He had a lot of problems,” Varma said in secretly recorded video which began percolating online this week.
He complained to an unnamed woman off-screen about de Blasio’s initial reluctance to force vaccine mandates on New Yorkers.
Blaz “didn’t have the courage to tell people to f—k off,” Varma said of his former boss. “I have mixed feelings about him because I worked closely with him and he’s not a good manager.”
Varma said de Blasio went against his own instincts in shuttering schools.
“I wanted kids in schools, the mayor wanted kids in schools, but the teacher’s unions didn’t,” Varma said. “The teacher’s unions wanted all the teachers to be able to stay home and Zoom so they’d be safe, even though it means that kids get hurt. So the mayor was screwed.”
