Governor Cuomo also announced Westchester and Suffolk Counties are now eligible to resume elective surgeries<\/span> and ambulatory care<\/span>. The Governor previously announced that the state will allow elective outpatient treatments to resume in counties and hospitals without significant risk of COVID-19 surge in the near term, and a total of 49 counties can now resume elective surgeries:<\/span><\/p>\n

Governor Cuomo announces horse racing tracks statewide and Watkins Glen International Racetrack will be allowed to open without fans as of June 1. (Darren McGee- Office of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo)<\/p><\/div>\n

“The numbers have been steadily decreasing and we’re now right about where we were when we started, but we want to make sure we don’t go back to the hell that we’ve gone through,” <\/span>Governor Cuomo said. <\/span>“We have a smart phased reopening plan that has been reviewed by experts, and half of the state is in the process of reopening. Now we’re getting a little more nuanced in our analysis and starting to look for economic activities that we can start without crowds and gatherings – in this state we can do that with horse racing tracks and car racing at Watkins Glen and we’re going to do that starting June 1.”<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, the Governor confirmed <\/span>2,419<\/span> additional cases of novel coronavirus, bringing the statewide total to <\/span>348,232<\/span> confirmed cases in New York State. Of the <\/span>348,232<\/span> total individuals who tested positive for the virus, the geographic breakdown is as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n
