That should be responsibility of FEMA or state/local relief, not the landlord.

Military members can use the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act to get out of a lease,If they have military orders.

Also, there will be some sort of Coronavirus relief package passed soon.

Those who have tested positive, are sick or have been laid of off due to the pandemic are most likely going to receive some relief from a government program.  

I feel more relief than anything at getting out last year.  

Well, maybe I can file for some kind of relief through a Landlord advocacy group or "small businesses affected by Covid'' relief, stimulus program, if the Senate approves it depending on Jan 5th runoff results.  

Most folks are paying rent and even if you go back to DeBlasio/Cuomo press conferences, neither is proposing relief in early Feb.

What programs are out there to provide temporary relief (e.g. no interest loans, social programs, etc.) and help offset current costs?

Do not get me wrong, I realize this is unprecedented times, but don't you think they would give landlords the same relief?

The rent is still due and any rent relief is temporary.
