New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) on Sunday said the state's infection rate has slowed and that if current hospitalization trends persist, the Empire State’s coronavirus outbreak has peaked and begun to descend.

“We’ve been watching this 24 hours a day… the total hospitalization rate is down again in the state of New York, we’re down to 16,000,” Cuomo said during his daily briefing. “It turned out the high point wasn’t a point, but the high point was a plateau, and we got up to the high point and then we just stayed at that level for a while.”

"If the data hold and if this trend holds, we are past the high point and all indications at this point are that we are on the descent,” Cuomo added. “Whether or not the descent continues depends on what we do, but right now are on the descent.”

The reaction has been vicious.

Liberals don't like their websites exposed and where they get their talking points and 'narratives'.

Save the link to the article and let everyone see how liberals are the ones spreading hysteria not facts.

Well, for one, it does keep him from playing with his nipple rings in public.

And, it might keep him from going after your wallet.

So that means they’ve run out of ways to falsify the statistics and make it look like the entire State and City of New York are going to be in the grave by next week? Guess they have to admit this dog wasn’t gonna hunt.

No, because now, Fredo's Dumber Brother & his trusty sidekick Finoccio Murphy have to get the #'s down to meet the Federal guidelines to reopen NY & NJ.

Watch the death counts drop this week like Hillary's Poll #'s on Election Night.
