Governor Andrew Cuomo said infections could peak in between four and 14 days.
„Part of me would like to be at the apex and just let’s do it. But there’s part of me that says it’s good that we’re not at the apex because we’re not yet ready,“ he said.
Mr Cuomo said the state was continuing its search for more ventilators. He thanked China for sending 1,000 ventilators, which were due to arrive on Saturday. The state of Oregon would deliver 140 more, he said.
In his daily coronavirus briefing, US President Donald Trump said he had assured Mr Cuomo that New York would get the resources it needs.
However, Mr Trump said federal assistance will now be focused on the hardest-hit areas, adding: „There will be a lot of death, unfortunately.“
