Cuomo indicates New York can start to reopen as planned after May 15 lockdown deadline
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Monday that New York can begin to reopen as planned on a “region-by-region” basis once the state’s stay-at-home order expires on May 15 amid the coronavirus pandemic.
“May 15 is when the state wide PAUSE order expires,” Cuomo said during his press conference on Monday. “On May 15 regions can start to reopen and do their own analysis.”
“This is going to be region by region and each region has to put together the leaders in those respective areas and monitor this system literally on a daily basis,” Cuomo added.
...
Cuomo said Monday that for a region to reopen, it needs to have 30 tests available for every 1,000 residents. Cuomo also said that the state has reduced hospitalizations, saying that there have been “100,000 fewer New Yorkers hospitalized than predicted.”
