The governor of New York, Andrew M. Cuomo, has given the green light to the plan presented this Sunday by the mayor of the city to stop the spread of the coronavirus. Bill de Blasio announced yesterday that he intended to apply strict measures to prevent more infections in nine neighborhoods of the city, those that maintain a contagion rate higher, higher than 3% in the tests that have been carried out over the last week.

Starting tomorrow, Tuesday, they will close all public and private schools in Brooklyn and Queens, where there is a significant population of Orthodox Jews who do not follow preventive measures and who have made it possible for the virus to spread rapidly in recent weeks. The measure is extensive to other parts of the state.
Blasio’s measures also meant the closure of non-essential businesses. These are the first restriction measures taken since the city began to be deconfined, until now described as exemplary.
