New York State announced that it will extend the 'shutdown' action of non-essential businesses in response to the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) on May 16 (local time) by May 15.

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said today on a press conference and Twitter.

New York's shutdown extension is noted as the US administration has announced it will announce guidelines for resuming economic activity that day.

President Trump has also said that some states may be restarted before May 1st.

It is observed that Governor Cuomo's announcement is not a message to continue the shutdown regardless of the Trump administration guidelines.

New York State has the largest number of corona19 diagnoses in the United States.

New York State originally said it was scheduled to lift the shutdown on April 30.

New York State decided on a de facto 'home evacuation order' ordering 100% telecommuting to 'non-essential' workplaces on the 20th of last month and went into effect on the night of the 22nd of the same month.

"We must continue to do what we're doing (corona19 proliferation restrictions). We want to see the infection rate go down even more," Governor Cuomo said.

For the situation after May 15, Governor Cuomo said, "What will happen after that (May 15th? I don't know.)" We'll see what the data tells us. I don't want to. "

In particular, Governor Cuomo said it was through coordination with other states in connection with the extension to shutdown until May 15.

It is noteworthy that another state in the northeastern United States will continue to shut down.

On the 13th, seven governors of the northeastern United States, including New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Massachusetts, jointly watched for the Corona 19 event, as well as plans for an economic 'normalization' when it is considered safe. We have agreed to form a working group to coordinate.

Delaware State has already extended the shutdown of non-essential operations by May 15, according to US media outlet CNBC.

New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy says he will extend the state's closings by at least May 15.

"This means it will not be safe for at least the next four weeks to open the door of the school," Governor Murphy said.

The deaths of Corona19 in New York State amounted to 12,192, an increase of 606 people a day.

The number of deaths per day was the lowest in the last 10 days.

New York's day-to-day deaths have risen to 700 people over the past 10 days.

The total number of confirmed and fatalized deaths in New York State continues to rise, but the number of hospitalized 'three-day averages' declined for two consecutive days.

The number of intensive care patients has also decreased by 134 from the previous day.

New York State decided to support 100 ventilators in nearby New Jersey as the number of intensive care patients decreased or slowed.

New York State also agreed to support 100 ventilators in Michigan and 50 in Maryland the day before.

Governor Cuomo has issued an administrative order that mandates wearing a face shield, such as a mask, if it is difficult to maintain a distance of at least six feet (about 1.8 meters) from another person in public.

Even when using public transportation or hired vehicles, they were asked to wear a face shield.

It takes effect on the 17th from 8pm.

According to the Johns Hopkins University, as of 2:30 pm on that day, the number of confirmed people in New York State is 22,231.

The number of deaths in New Jersey's Corona 19 was 362, an increase of 3,518.

The confirmed number also increased by 4,300 to 75,000,317.

The New York Times (NYT) reports that New Jersey deaths have risen by more than 1,000 in three days.
