New York virus deaths hit 2-week low

NEW YORK (AP) New York’s daily toll of coronavirus deaths has hit its lowest point in more than two weeks, but officials still are warning people in New York City and the rest of the state they need to stay vigilant to curb the spread of the virus.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio were expected to give briefings on Sunday on the latest developments on the outbreak. The number of coronavirus deaths in New York state dropped Saturday under 550 for the first time in over two weeks as hospitalizations continue to decline.

But the crisis is far from over. Cuomo said hospitals are still reporting nearly 2,000 new COVID-19 patients per day, and nursing homes remain a “feeding frenzy for this virus.“
