"The more than 900 new cases in New York yesterday, while representing just 1.38 per cent of tests, is a reminder that the virus is still here," the Democratic governor said in a news release.
He added, "I cannot repeat enough that our actions today -- those of individuals being smart and following all precautions, and local governments enforcing the state's guidelines -- will determine which direction these numbers go."
