Governor Encourages New Yorkers to Keep Using the Tools to Protect Against and Treat COVID-19: Vaccines, Boosters, Testing, and Treatment
10 Statewide Deaths Reported Yesterday
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to the holiday, HERDS data collection from health care facilities will be paused from Saturday, July 2 through Monday, July 4. Data from Friday, July 1 will be reported on Tuesday, July 5. Further, four days of cumulative data—from July 2 to July 5—will be reported on Wednesday, June 6. As a result, some data may appear higher than recent trends.
NOTE: Updates to the CDC's cumulative death data files have been paused since June 6, 2022, as the CDC upgrades its system. As of June 28, 2022, CDC reporting has not yet resumed. Any questions about this should be directed to the CDC. During this time, total deaths and new daily deaths reported through HERDS will continue as normal.
Governor Kathy Hochul today updated New Yorkers on the state's progress combating COVID-19.
"As New Yorkers travel to spend Fourth of July weekend with family and friends, I encourage everyone to continue to exercise caution and lean on the tools we know that protect us from COVID-19," Governor Hochul said. "Getting vaccinated, staying up-to-date on your boosters, and testing if you're experiencing symptoms, are our best defenses. If you do end up testing positive, talk to your doctor about available treatments."
Today's data is summarized briefly below:
- Cases Per 100k - 34.46
- 7-Day Average Cases Per 100k - 28.02
- Test Results Reported - 83,358
- Total Positive - 6,734

- 7-Day Average Percent Positive - 6.37%**
- Patient Hospitalization - 1,987 (-3)
- Patients Newly Admitted - 343
- Patients in ICU - 192 (0)
- Patients in ICU with Intubation - 65 (-12)
- Total Discharges - 316,135 (+341)
- New deaths reported by healthcare facilities through HERDS - 10
- Total deaths reported by healthcare facilities through HERDS - 56,570
** Due to the test reporting policy change by the federal Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and several other factors, the most reliable metric to measure virus impact on a community is the case per 100,000 data -- not percent positivity.
The Health Electronic Response Data System is a NYS DOH data source that collects confirmed daily death data as reported by hospitals, nursing homes and adult care facilities only.
Important Note: Effective Monday, April 4, the federal Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is no longer requiring testing facilities that use COVID-19 rapid antigen tests to report negative results. As a result, New York State's percent positive metric will be computed using only lab-reported PCR results. Positive antigen tests will still be reported to New York State and reporting of new daily cases and cases per 100k will continue to include both PCR and antigen tests. Due to this change and other factors, including changes in testing practices, the most reliable metric to measure virus impact on a community is the case per 100,000 data -- not percent positivity.
- Total deaths reported to and compiled by the CDC - 72,079
