Governor Cuomo Announces New Record-High Number of COVID-19 Tests Reported to New York State - ny.gov

Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced that 205,466 COVID-19 test results were reported to New York State yesterday—a new record high.

 

"We did 205,000 tests yesterday, a new record. Remember when we first started, we could only do 500 tests a day -- that's how far we have come. Context here is very important because I want New Yorkers to have confidence in the rules that we're setting. And it's not that our rules are that much more onerous than other states' rules, it's that we triggered them earlier. Our triggers are much lower than other states, and hence our performance is much better than other states," Governor Cuomo said. "You decide your own destiny. If you follow the rules, you're fine. And if you're not fine, the rules change on you. The micro-cluster approach doesn't put restrictions on places that are following the rules. It's that targeted. If you and your neighbor are acting responsibly, you have a collective, vested interest in your local community. I am concerned about Thanksgiving, and I believe it could have a large impact if people are reckless. It is the socialization that's a problem, and socialization is human behavior. So we are on guard, but it depends on what we do."

 

The Governor noted that the positive testing rate in all focus areas under the state's Micro-Cluster strategy is 4.55 percent, and outside the focus zone areas is 2.15 percent. Within the focus areas, 43,790 test results were reported yesterday, yielding 1,994 positives. In the remainder of the state, not counting these focus areas, 161,676 test results were reported, yielding 3,474 positives.
