ALBANY, N.Y. — New York on Monday reported 3,951 new coronavirus infections in the last day, a sharp decline from 5,902 positives a day earlier and 10,553 cases two days ago.

It was the lowest-ever percentage increase (1.4 percent) in virus cases in a day since the pandemic hit the state hard eight weeks ago.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Monday said 337 people lost their lives to COVID-19 in the last day, down from 367 a day earlier and 437 a couple day ago. It’s the lowest daily death count in the Empire State since April 4.

Hospitalizations, new hospital admissions, and new intubations also continued to decline, adding further evidence to support the case that New York is on the downward curve of the pandemic.

The state is up to nearly 292,000 total COVID-19 infections and more than 17,300 deaths.
