With restaurants, stores and even public pools and beaches now open after months of being shuttered, some New Yorkers might wonder whether it's safe to swipe their Metrocards again and hop on the train or bus. Interim MTA President Sarah Feinberg says, "It's time to come back." In May, the MTA restricted its otherwise 24/7 service and began shutting down trains from 1 a.m. to 5 a.m. [1] so that the company could completely sanitize each car.
"We're doing 24/7 cleaning," Feinberg tells Newsweek. "But, it obviously is helpful for us to be able to have the system completely free of all riders in those overnight hours, [2] in order that we can be particularly efficient."
In the beginning of March, [3] when the virus began affecting New York City, MTA workers were not allowed to wear masks while on duty - in alignment with the CDC recommendations at the time. The ban was then lifted [4] after there was a backlash from the Transport Workers Union Local 100, the New York Daily News reported. The MTA reports that 4,110 MTA employees have tested positive for the virus as of July 29.

Para identificar as orações subordinadas que indicam propósito, precisamos analisar as cláusulas destacadas no texto e os conectores que indicam essa finalidade. 1. A cláusula [1] "so that the company could completely sanitize each car" indica propósito, pois "so that" é um conector que expressa a intenção de realizar a ação anterior. 2. A cláusula [2] "in order that we can be particularly efficient" também indica propósito, pois "in order that" é outro conector que expressa a finalidade da ação. As cláusulas [3] e [4] não expressam propósito, mas sim uma condição ou uma consequência. Portanto, as cláusulas que contêm subordinadores usados para indicar propósito são as destacadas em 1 e 2. Assim, a resposta correta é: A 1 e 2.

Virologist at Columbia University Angela Rasmussen suggests avoiding public transportation, if possible, especially if crowded.
"Any type of public transportation that has a lot of people crowded together in an enclosed, poorly ventilated space is an environment with increased transmission risk," Rasmussen tells Newsweek. "This especially applies to packed subway cars or public buses."
Feinberg says there is not an issue with ventilation within subway cars; in fact, MTA's numbers surpass the recommendation promoted by the CDC. [1] Though there are no standards for subway cars, the MTA has adapted the guidelines for the air exchange rates for health care facilities. She says that [2] while the recommendation from the CDC is 10 times per hour, the subway's numbers are upwards of 16 or 18 times per hour. "It doesn't mean we are perfect, we are always looking for what else we can do," Feinberg says."But we are in a pretty good place there."
The issue of crowding, though, is really up to the rider, Feinberg adds. Patience is key, the virologist explains. [3] If a train pulls up that is too crowded to allow for appropriate social distancing, then wait for the next one.
