COVID Hospitalizations Reach New Low in NY State
New York State and New York City have reached new lows for COVID-19 hospitalizations, patients in ICUs and intubations, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Sunday. Hospitalizations dropped to 472, the lowest number since March 16, while the number of patients in ICUs dropped to 110, the lowest number since March 15.
Intubations dropped to 50, the lowest number since mid-March. New York State’s rate of positive tests has been less than 1% for 16 straight days, although Western New York’s rate is slightly higher. No COVID-19 deaths were reported in New York City Sunday.
“Our hospitalizations, intubations and people in the ICU are the lowest they’ve been since mid-March—that’s a real achievement,” Cuomo said. “But make no mistake: this virus is still surging in parts of the country, and until there is a vaccine we cannot become numb or complacent about the risks we face.”
