“#Over 1K hospitalized in NY for COVID-19, highest level since June<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n ALBANY \u2014 For the first time in four months, over 1,000 New Yorkers were hospitalized for the coronavirus, according to new state data released on Friday.<\/p>\n

The state recorded 1,023 patients hospitalized for the virus on Thursday, the highest level recorded since June 22 when 1,104 New Yorkers were admitted for COVID-19.<\/p>\n

The statewide hospitalization figure has steadily increased over the last month and a half, as Sept. 5 marked 410 individuals hospitalized following a decline throughout July and August.<\/p>\n

But since that date, the total recorded coronavirus hospital patients continued to climb \u2014 nearly doubling a month later to 710 patients on Oct. 5.<\/p>\n

Nearly 50 percent of all new hospital admissions over the last two week period was tracked in Brooklyn, Queens, Rockland and Orange counties as well as Upstate counties along the Pennsylvania border.<\/p>\n

New York reached a high of 18,000 virus-related hospitalizations in April.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe experts told us we would see infection rates increase through the fall, and we\u2019ve seen that as cases rise again across the nation,\u201d Cuomo said in a statement, reiterating warnings that viral upticks were likely associated with fall school and college campus reopenings, flu season and indoor gathering increases in general<\/a> as individuals seek refuge from the cold weather.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn New York, we are attacking micro-clusters where we see them, and that will be our strategy through this season as we see micro-clusters come and go,\u201d Cuomo said. \u201cOur progress is thanks to the New Yorkers who rose to the occasion and came together like no other community.<\/p>\n

\u201cProtecting that progress is going to depend on all of us keeping up that good work to wear our masks, wash our hands, remain social<\/a>ly distant \u2013 and stay New York Tough.\u201d<\/p>\n

Areas designated as \u201chotspot\u201d cluster zones by state health officials have recorded alarming positive case increases in specific neighborhoods since late September, linking the upticks to large gatherings especially in ultra-Orthodox Jewish communities.<\/p>\n

The rising case count got so bad that the DOH announced reinstated portions of the pandemic lockdown on Oct. 6 \u2013\u2013 shuttering non-essential businesses and temporarily closing schools again, harkening back to measures taken in early March.<\/p>\n

The worst neighborhoods were designated as \u201cred,\u201d \u201corange\u201d or \u201cyellow\u201d zones, depending on the severity of the uptick.<\/p>\n

Protests broke out \u2014 namely in the Brooklyn and Queens neighborhoods impacted \u2014 over the measures, as members of the Orthodox Jewish community decried slim restrictions on religious gatherings.<\/p>\n

This past week Cuomo announced hotspot zones were being reevaluated, and loosened some restrictions in certain neighborhoods as viral rates have lowered and compliance with COVID-19 restrictions such as mask wearing and social distancing has increased.<\/p>\n

Compliance enforcement efforts have also continued, as the state Liquor Authority swiped 21 additional liquor licenses of bars and restaurants across the Empire State.<\/p>\n

That comes to 238 total businesses\u2019 liquor licenses suspended tied to COVID-19 violations since March.<\/p>\n

One suspension occurred at a red zone, as SLA inspectors stumbled upon a 100-person wedding reception held at Da Mikelle Palace at 102 Queens Boulevard in Forest Hills on Oct. 21.<\/p>\n

Deputies heard music playing inside and entered \u2014 although the front lights were off \u201cto give the impression the business was closed,\u201d according to the inspectors\u2019 notes.<\/p>\n

People were eating, drinking and dancing sans masks and maintaining six feet of social distancing, in violation of restrictions and the establishment\u2019s 50-person capacity limit.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the daily statewide positive viral infection rate hit 1.15 percent as of midnight.<\/p>\n

Eleven New Yorkers died of the virus, out of the DOH\u2019s 25,705 total recorded confirmed virus deaths since March \u2014 or 33,396 total confirmed and presumed deaths according to Johns Hopkins University.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
