The total number of cases in NYC has not started to exhibit a plateau nor has the total number of new cases. NY has not reached the peak number of cases yet..

The next two weeks will provide more data and I doubt they will be easy. Gov Coumo (and President Trump) and their advisers have to make important decisions with only models to guide them. Both have repeatedly emphasized that one hopes for the best but plans for the worst. Because when the s**t hits the fan, you have to do the best with what you have. If you have what you need (or a bit more) you will be happy and successful.

It is easy for us to sit behind a keyboard and criticize them. Ask yourself, if you had to make these decisions and realized you had to answer to a partisan press who wanted stories where "If it bleeds, it leads", what would you do?

I'm glad I am not in charge and will give them the benefit of the doubt until it is over.

Hey pal, I was merely commenting that a reporter asked Cuomo a valid question, which has been a rarity with him, inasmuch the reporters interrogating the president is completely opposite.
