In just 10 days, the city will begin to experience a shortage of medicines to treat coronavirus patients, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio said on March 22. “If we don't get more ventilators, people will start dying,” he said.

It is noted that today the state of New York has become the epicenter of the coronavirus in America. Almost half of all cases of the disease are registered here. A total of 31057 cases of the disease were confirmed in the United States, 390 people died.

According to Governor Andrew Cuomo, as of March 22, the state recorded 15168 cases of infection. A day earlier, there were more than four thousand less.

In this regard, the governor ordered the cancellation of all non-urgent operations in the state.

Harsh truth

Cuomo also believes that "Americans deserve to learn the harsh truth." He said in an interview with NBC News that the situation is only getting worse, and added that in April-May it will be even worse.

New York today accounts for about 5% of all Covid-19 infections in the world.

Of the more than 9 thousand cases of the disease in New York, 38 cases were recorded in prisons, including 21 inmates. In this regard, activists called for prisoners to reduce their sentences. This should help deal with crowds in prisons.
