NEW YORK – New restrictions will be implemented in New York State beginning Friday, November 13, as a measure to combat COVID-19 following concerns about an alarming increase in cases during the fall and winter.

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo unveiled the new measures Wednesday during a telephone press conference.

These measures include:

1. All bars and restaurants and places authorized by the State Liquor Authority must close their indoor areas by 10:00 pm After that time, only curbside food pickup will be allowed.
2. Gyms must also close at 10:00 pm
3. House parties or private residential gatherings will be limited to 10 people.

“We are seeing a global increase in COVID-19 cases and New York is a boat in the tide of COVID,” Cuomo said. “Today, we have seen the country set a new record in terms of cases. It really is getting a lot, a lot worse every day.”

The announcement comes after announcing that in New York of the 164,300 tests reported on Tuesday, 4,820 were positive (2.93% of the total). Likewise, the total hospitalizations is 1,628 and 21 people lost their lives due to COVID-19.
