New York State enforced new Covid restrictions Friday night, imposing curfews on restaurants and gyms and restricting gatherings to private homes to 10 people, while New York City schools are on the verge of closing.
Mayor Bill de Blasio on Friday instructed parents to “make a plan as early as Monday” in the event that a citywide rolling positivity rate hits the school’s shutdown threshold over the weekend. By Friday, the rate had reached 2.83 percent, up from the 3 percent mark, for the period -l-remote moving.
He reminded New York City of the new rules being implemented across the state on Friday night by order of the governor. Bar and rest restaurant renters must stop indoor service until 10pm, although they can continue to choose food delivery. GM should also be closed at 10pm Fridays also effective: Social gatherings at private homes are capped at 10 people. Those are the three “great spreaders” that have been identified by contact tracing in recent weeks, Gov. Andrew Cuomo has stated.
Similar steps were taken in New Jersey on Thursday, when the governor of Connecticut moved to a private residential gathering a week ago.
Cuomo hopes the new measures will help slow the viral resurgence in New York, but is prepared to take additional action if that doesn’t happen. That said, it probably starts with hardening caps on indoor dining. In New York City, Mayor de Blasio said months ago that he would re-evaluate the meal if it topped the city’s seven-day rolling positivity rate of 2 percent, although he acknowledged that the governor has this K.L.

Still, he wants to keep the return, that is, the three percent threshold that all New York City schools decided to move remotely again for the time being. It is close to the threshold.
As of Friday, New York City’s rolling positivity rate was about 9 percent higher than the previous day and 2.83 percent faster than reaching the shutdown threshold at any one time. Reflecting the daily increase in these cases in the mirror since the end of October, he has increased every day this week. If it hits 3 percent, De Blasio says the city’s schools will move all remotely the next school day. The city’s education department sent a letter to principals on Thursday asking them to be prepared for possible reality.
“In order to take a lot of precautions and protect our school communities, I urge all schools to provide full distance education, ready for the immediate, comprehensive system,” Chancellor Richard Karenza said in the letter. “And while no decision has been made about a system-wide transition to remote learning, as every great school leader knows, we must be prepared for every scenario.”
New Covid sanctions have been enacted in New Jersey, some of the reflection limits announced by Governor Andrew Cuomo will be imposed in New York a day later, as the Governor of Garden State has beaten what he described as “destructive.” Recent increase in viral numbers. NBC New York’s Czech Beckford and Ray Wilda report.
Schools have been a bright spot for New York City in the ongoing war against coronavirus. The randomized test showed a positive rate of only 0.17 percent, indicating that the experiment for individual learning in the country’s largest school system has so far been successful amid the epidemic.
De Blasio was asked on Thursday if he would raise the closure threshold by 3 percent given the number. Statewide, for example, Cuomo has set a 9 percent rolling positivity rate threshold for school closure. The mayor says he is sticking to the percent percent threshold after fighting with unions of teachers and principals over personal school safety over the summer.
“This is a rule that we have made very clear there,” de Blasio said. “If one day we see in the morning the indicators come out and it reaches that level, we will move forward immediately. The next day the schools will be closed.”
“If we reach the closure point, we will assess what needs to be done to get back as soon as possible.” “At the time, we would look at different options because we now had something we didn’t have before – proof of how things would work in this environment.”
De Blasio insisted that re-closure was not inevitable, not wanting to deny people of their own power to stop it. That said, anyone who has been closely monitoring the core metrics over the past two weeks thinks it’s a matter of time.
To say the least, the latest numbers are tormenting. The city’s daily case average has increased since the beginning of November. Last week, it reached 600 for the first time since early June. As of Wednesday, it was 817. On Thursday, it reached 870. It then peaked at 900 (916) on Friday, up 5 percent from the previous day. City data show that since CTO. Since 0, the daily case has increased on an average every day.
Less measurable indication that the situation has worsened: Test centers are now seeing long lines even in the evening hours, which were not the case a month ago. CTMD, which operates more than 1 emergency care centers in Washington state, New York, New Jersey and Washington, wrote in an email to patients on Friday that long lines are a “daily fact” in almost all of its tri-state locations. A sharp increase in COVID-19 cases across the region. “
Statewide, the numbers have boomed, though not exactly as fatally as they did in March and April. New York has reported an average of more than 10,000 new cases in the last two days, more than half the number seen at the height of the crisis, but four times the daily average since early September.
The seven-day rolling positivity rate, which provides a more accurate picture over time, is at its highest level since May 29 (2.6 percent). It has shown an increase of 44% in the last seven days.
