New York has a total of 113,704 COVID-19 cases, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said today during a press conference.
The state recorded a new high of positive cases Friday with 10,841. There are 15,905 people in the hospital and 4,126 in ICU, Cuomo said.
As of today, 3,565 people have died due to COVID-19.
“By the numbers, we’re not yet at the apex. We’re getting closer,” Cuomo said.
New York City’s numbers are dropping and Long island positive case numbers are growing, Cuomo said.
New York City’s Javits Convention Center will have 2,500 beds and will be staffed entirely by the federal government, Cuomo said.
