Gov. Cuomo Says NY Now Only 4 to 8 Days From COVID-19 Peak but ‘We’re Not Yet Ready’ for It

‘We’re tracking the growth of the number of infections by hospital’

RUSH EXCERPT:

CUOMO: “We’re tracking the growth of the number of infections by hospital, and we can see just where the numbers are increasing. We’ve been talking about hitting the apex. The apex is the point where the number of infections on a daily basis is at the high point that is the ultimate challenge I call it the battle of the mountaintop. That will be the number one point of the engagement of the enemy. By the numbers we’re not at the apex. We’re getting closer, depending on whose model you’ll look at. They’ll say four, five, six seven days, some people go out 14 days but our reading of the projections is we’re somewhere in the seven-day range, four, five, six day range. Nobody can give you a specific number, which makes it frustrating to plan when you don’t have a specific number or date, but we’re in that range. We’re not yet at the apex part of me would looks to be at the apex and just let’s do it but part of me says it’s good we’re not at the apex, because we’re not yet ready.”
