NY governor says New York City positivity rate averages at 2.5%
The New York Daily News reported that the positivity rate New York City had surpassed the 3% threshold. This according to 3 sources. However, New York Gov. Cuomo is out now saying that the New York City positivity rate is 2.5% while the state positivity rate is 2.9%. That would delay any decision on school closings.
Cuomo does warn that New York City could go to the "orange zone" at a 3% positivity rate
