said today. If the preliminary results prove correct, approximately 1.7 million New Yorkers have been exposed to the virus and survived.
At his daily press briefing, Cuomo said that 3,000 residents of New York State were recently tested for antibodies at 40 locations over a two-day period. Results indicate that 13.9% of state residents have the antibodies, a significantly lower percentage than New York City’s 21.2%. Cuomo said that antibody testing and a better understanding of the infection rate could be used to determine a reopening strategy. The testing, Cuomo said, “can tell you the infection rate in the population — where it’s higher, where it’s lower — to inform you on a reopening strategy. Then when you start reopening, you can watch that infection rate to see if it’s going up and if it’s going up, slow down.
