New York’s Coronavirus Death Toll Falls to Lowest Level in Weeks
New York state reported its lowest number of daily coronavirus deaths in weeks on Friday.
The state reported 422 deaths as of Thursday. That’s the fewest since March 31, when it recorded 391 deaths. More than 16,000 people have died in the state from the outbreak.

The total number of people hospitalized statewide continues to drop slowly, hitting about 14,000, though the number of new patients coming into hospitals is basically flat, Cuomo said.
