I don’t understand how shutting a whole state (except schools and large public events) makes sense, all they would have to do is limit travel in/out of areas hard hit at the time.

A one size fits all lock down does not work.

NYC and it's surrounding areas is a good example.

Much of Upstate NY is very desolate. The Adirondack Park is 25 % of the land mass of the state. Hardly anyone lives up there, especially in the winter.

Many parts of the state have low or no cases and/or deaths.

To impose the lock down on the whole state based on what's happening in NYC is extremely short sighted and screams tyranny, which we all knew about Cuomo anyways.

You may have missed the exodus from NYC to other counties, including to places where the summer communities had not even turned the water on yet and no grocery stores were open.

Also essentially bringing the virus to places that had no adequate health care.
