Resumption of economic activity in NY, USA Regulation gradually eased New Corona June 9 5:56

Economic activity resumed on May 8 in New York, USA, where the spread of the new coronavirus was the most serious.
Regulations are being gradually relaxed, and we will continue to be faced with difficult challenges regarding how to rebuild the economy while risking the spread of infection again.

On the 8th, New York City acknowledged the restart of economic activities for the first time after the spread of the infection, and in addition to the construction industry, some retail stores such as general stores and bookstores have resumed operations.

However, in retail stores, customers are not free to enter, but only when the person who placed the order receives the item at the store.

It seems that many stores are cautious about resuming operations, partly because of the sacking that took place due to a protest demonstration triggered by the death of a black man.

As a result, Manhattan, in the heart of New York City, has seen a slight increase in the number of cars on the street, but hasn't changed much since last week.

Economic activity is divided into four stages, and it is planned to be gradually eased in the future, but in the state of New York, the policy is to see the situation for at least two weeks before moving to the next stage, and by the time it reaches the final stage, It will take at least a month and a half.

Governor Cuomo of New York said at a press conference that day, "We're back. We're probably back from some of the worst in the world."

New York will continue to face difficult challenges in terms of how to rebuild the economy, at the risk of the epidemic spreading again.

Expanding the inspection system to prevent infection

In New York, where economic activity has resumed, the inspection system has been expanded as a pillar to prevent the second wave of the spread of infection, and infected people are detected early regardless of the presence or absence of symptoms, and each contact person is tracked and isolated. I am deciding.

In New York State, including New York City, around 60,000 tests such as PCR are performed daily to check for new coronavirus infection.

In addition to public laboratories, there are about 700 locations that can be tested, such as private clinics and pharmacies, but Governor Cuomo further expanded the inspection system as economic activity resumed, with 3 days a day in New York City alone. It is supposed to be able to carry out inspection of 55,000 cases.

If infection is confirmed, we will investigate who has been contacted during the past certain period and request quarantine for 2 weeks to prevent the spread of the infection.

In New York, people who have completed an Internet course offered by a university in the United States say that unless a certain number of people who follow up on contacts are secured in each region, it will not proceed to the next stage of restarting economic activity. , Will employ approximately 17,000 researchers to conduct large-scale surveys.
