New York will be the first state where all people are under orders to wear masks when they go out in public after an order from Governor Andrew Cuomo.
New York’s executive order will take effect after a three-day grace period, Cuomo said. As of now, there are no fines that will be imposed for people who refuse to follow the order, but Cuomo said he’s not ruling that out as a possibility in the future. He also said the order is a move toward, and a nod to how life on the other side of the coronavirus won’t look exactly the same as it did before.
“Where we’re going, it’s not a reopening in that we’re going to reopen what was. We’re going to a different place,” he. “If you are going to be in a situation, in public, where you come into contact with other people in a situation that is not socially distanced, you must have a mask or a cloth covering nose and mouth.”
New York has been the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak in the United States, with nearly a third of the nation’s total 600,000 cases. There are still roughly 2,000 new cases being confirmed in the state every day, according to Cuomo, but also some hopeful signs that the curve is starting to flatten there as new infections, hospitalizations, and serious cases begin to level off.“It’s over when people know I’m 100% safe and I don’t have to worry about this.
