22 COVID-19 Deaths in New York State Yesterday
Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced that the statewide COVID-19 positivity rate dropped to 1.08 percent yesterday, the lowest since October 10.
"New Yorkers are making tremendous progress in slowing the spread and keeping the numbers down - we have the lowest single-day positivity rate since October 10 and that is purely a function of our resilience and discipline," Governor Cuomo said. "As our numbers continue to decline, we're reopening even more sectors of our economy and reimagining life for a new normal in a post-pandemic world. We are getting on with life, but we haven't fully conquered the COVID beast yet and we have to continue with the practices we know work to stop COVID in its tracks - wearing masks, practicing social distancing and most importantly, getting vaccinated."
