Only three regions have met all seven metrics to reopen, but just two regions have to satisfy one more to qualify.
Three regions in New York state will start to reopen on Friday, but it's not going to be as if a light switched back on, with life returning to normal. Instead, there will be a gradual reopening.
"It's an exciting new phase. We're all anxious to get back to work," Cuomo said."We want to do it smartly, we want to do it intelligently, but we want to do it." Central New York and North Country have met six of the seven metrics, according to Cuomo, and the Capital Region, Long Island, Mid-Hudson, New York City and Western New York regions have each met five.New York Department of Health
In this first phase, construction, manufacturing, agriculture, forestry and fishing businesses can reopen, and retailers can start offering curbside or in-store pickups. Additional businesses will be allowed to reopen in phases two, three and four. Once businesses reopen, they must have adjusted hours and shifts, implement sanitation standards and require masks if people are in close contact.
