Cuomo hails 29th straight day of under 1% coronavirus positivity rate for NY

NEW YORK — New York is on a coronavirus roll — and the good news has gone on for nearly a month.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced Saturday that the state is celebrating a 29th successive day of sub-1% positivity in statewide COVID-19 testing.

“Our progress proves that this virus responds to science, not politics,” Cuomo said.

He warned New Yorkers not to let their guard down as the long weekend marking the unofficial end of summer arrives.
