In total, the coronavirus has killed 9,385 people in New York. The state's growing death toll dwarfs the nearly 3,000 deaths at the World Trade Center on 9/11,"which was supposed to be the tragedy of my lifetime," Cuomo said. Intensive care unit admissions ticked up, though Cuomo said this rise was"dubious" to him because almost all hospital beds these days are essentially being treated as ICU beds.
During the briefing, the governor also touted a pair of executive orders he said he would be signing on Sunday. One directs employers to provide essential workers cloth or surgical face masks to wear when directly interacting with the public. That follows a similar executive order signed by New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy.
