, Nassau, Suffolk, Westchester, Putnam, Orange, Dutchess, Sullivan, and Ulster counties are now considered high risk.In addition to high-risk counties, health officials say everyone with compromised immune systems should stay masked while inside in public settings.
"These public health measures, as well as ensuring proper air ventilation when gathering, will help reduce COVID-19 transmission in communities and lower the risk of serious illness and hospitalization for individuals. We will continue to work with local partners and make every tool at our disposal widely available to New Yorkers, as we move forward through the pandemic," said State Health Commissioner Dr. Mary T. Bassett in a statement.
Blakeman says his decision is based on hospitalizations and ICU admissions --- unline the state, which counts cases and deaths as well. "If those numbers spiked to a level that was dangerous, then, of course, we would look for guidance from our health comissioner and we would follow appropriate protocols. But right now, we're not anywhere near a crisis situation," Blakeman added."I'm on the railroad every day, we wear masks -- we're cautious. But at the same time, I think we've had enough at this point and need to move on," said Blaine Capobianco.
While New York State has a mask recommendation, Blakeman says he would not rule out a mask order in Nassau County, but insists his own data does not come close to supporting that.
