NYC on Track for Next Phase of Reopening

Two weeks after receiving the green light to begin the phased process of reopening, New York City is on track to enter Phase Two on June 22, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Wednesday.

He added that the Mid-Hudson Valley is on track to enter Phase Three of reopening on June 23 and Long Island is on track to enter Phase Three on June 24, based on current data.

Cuomo also announced that New York State saw the lowest percentage of positive COVID-19 tests since the pandemic began. Out of the 59,341 tests conducted in New York State Tuesday, only 567, or less than 1%, were positive. The number of deaths recorded Tuesday, 17, was similarly the lowest statewide total yet.

“New Yorkers have done an incredible job in working to beat back this virus, and we must continue to remain smart so we don’t erase the progress we’ve made,” said Cuomo.
