New York state coronavirus data for April 8, 2020
Numbers will be filled it as they're released:
- Total deaths 6268 vs 5489 yesterday
- Cuomo says: There is no doubt we are bending the curve
- Says state to make immediate $600 additional payment to all those who filed for unemployment insurance, expects to be reimbursed by federal govt
- Says it's a very real possibility that they're under-counting those who died at home
- Hospitalizations 566 vs 656 yesterday
- Total cases 149,316 vs 138,863 yesterday
- 10,453 cases vs 8147 a day ago
The number of cases was the highest yet.
I have to wonder about the hospital numbers when there are reports like this: Retired NYPD sergeant with coronavirus drops dead on Manhattan street hour after leaving hospital
