New York Will Issue Executive Order: Public Places Must Wear Masks.

According to us CNBC reports, local time on Wednesday (15), Drew Cuomo, Changan, New York, at a regular epidemic conference, said he plans to sign an executive order requiring all people to wear masks in public places or to cover their mouths and noses in other ways.

Como said on that day that with the gradual reopening of enterprises, New York will move towards "new normal". At this stage of recovery, people first need to wear masks to avoid further spread of the virus. Como also reminded the public that the "crisis" brought by the epidemic can only be ended until the vaccine is actually available.

"If you want to travel to public places, and you want to be close to others, you must wear a mask or cover your mouth and nose with cloth," said Como. He added that he will give people three days of adjustment before the new rules come into effect. In the past three days, the local government will carry out the order, but for the time being, it will not be fined.

In March 20th, New York promulgated the "home ownership order" after California, which stipulates that all non key enterprises in the state will be at home to work to relieve the new crown pneumonia epidemic. With the gradual control of the outbreak in the state, Como recently confirmed that New York will coordinate with 5 other Northeastern states to restart some activities. "The worst is over," he said. "If we proceed cautiously, I believe we can get back to normal."

According to real-time data released by Johns Hopkins University, as of 2:30 Beijing time on April 16th, the United States has reported 614482 cases of new crown pneumonia confirmed cases, and 27085 cases of cumulative deaths. New York is still the epicentre of the US epidemic, with 203377 confirmed cases and 11586 cumulative deaths. Como said in a press conference on Tuesday (14) that by the latest analysis and judgment, government officials believed that New York had reached the peak of the new crown epidemic and was gradually stabilizing.
