Governor Hochul Updates New Yorkers on State's Progress Combating COVID-19

Governor Encourages New Yorkers to Keep Using the Tools to Protect Against and Treat COVID-19: Vaccines, Boosters, Testing, and Treatment

Statewide 7-Day Average Case Rate is Lowest Since April 12

Statewide Hospitalizations at 1,938 -- Down from Peak on May 23 (2,724)

38 Statewide Deaths Reported Yesterday

NOTE: Updates to the CDC's cumulative death data files were paused starting June 6, 2022, while the CDC upgrades its system. Reporting is expected to resume on June 21, 2022. Any questions about this should be directed to the CDC. During this time, total deaths and new daily deaths reported through HERDS will continue as normal.

Governor Kathy Hochul today updated New Yorkers on the state's progress combating COVID-19.

"It is important that we continue to stay vigilant to ensure personal and community safety," Governor Hochul said. "Take a test before traveling, stay home if you feel unwell, and keep up to date with vaccinations and booster doses. Let's continue to use these tools to keep our families and loved ones safe, and help mitigate future potential surges."

Important Note: HERDS data collection from health care facilities was paused due to the weekend from 6/11/2022-6/13/2022. Data from those days were submitted in Monday's report. Where noted, totals include three days of cumulative data from 6/11/2022-6/13/2022. As a result, some data may appear higher than recent trends. Data affected is marked with an asterisk.

Today's data is summarized briefly below:

  • Cases Per 100k - 19.91
  • 7-Day Average Cases Per 100k - 27.60
  • Test Results Reported - 56,310
  • Total Positive - 3,890
  • Percent Positive - 6.69%**
  • 7-Day Average Percent Positive - 5.47%**
  • Patient Hospitalization - 1,938 (-15)
  • Patients Newly Admitted - 663*
  • Patients in ICU - 198 (-6)
  • Patients in ICU with Intubation - 73 (+5)
  • Total Discharges - 311,596 (+565)*
  • New deaths reported by healthcare facilities through HERDS - 38*
  • Total deaths reported by healthcare facilities through HERDS - 56,345*

** Due to the test reporting policy change by the federal Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and several other factors, the most reliable metric to measure virus impact on a community is the case per 100,000 data -- not percent positivity.

The Health Electronic Response Data System is a NYS DOH data source that collects confirmed daily death data as reported by hospitals, nursing homes and adult care facilities only.

Important Note: Effective Monday, April 4, the federal Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is no longer requiring testing facilities that use COVID-19 rapid antigen tests to report negative results. As a result, New York State's percent positive metric will be computed using only lab-reported PCR results. Positive antigen tests will still be reported to New York State and reporting of new daily cases and cases per 100k will continue to include both PCR and antigen tests. Due to this change and other factors, including changes in testing practices, the most reliable metric to measure virus impact on a community is the case per 100,000 data -- not percent positivity.

  • Total deaths reported to and compiled by the CDC - 71,670

This daily COVID-19 provisional death certificate data reported by NYS DOH and NYC to the CDC includes those who died in any location, including hospitals, nursing homes, adult care facilities, at home, in hospice and other settings.

The COVID-19 VaccineTracker Dashboard is available to update New Yorkers on the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine. The New York State Department of Health requires vaccinating facilities to report all COVID-19 vaccine administration data within 24 hours; the vaccine administration data on the dashboard is updated daily to reflect the most up-to-date metrics in the state's vaccination effort. New York State Department of Health-reported data from NYSIIS and CIR differs slightly from federally-reported data, which is inclusive of federally-administered doses and other minor differences. Both numbers are included in the release above.
