Thanks to him (and most NYers) NY has brought down the curve albeit slowly. The Governor understands that you have to be prudent in how you open the state and how quickly you do it. If not done properly you will easily reverse all the weeks of sacrifice and hard work. I thank him for being smarter than most and caring about his state.
Of course there's an entire state attached to that populated coastal city. Not that we matter much.
@pigletsmom If you reread my post I first referred to NYC to make a point of the most difficult circumstances and because that's where I live. Then I referred to the state as a whole. Read. And stop taking things so personally.
Well you seemed to say that the governor has to be very prudent about opening the state because of one huge city. But I admit to be a little sensitive to the subject of the governor. A guy who dodges a question about sending sick patients and workers to nursing homes by reminding them that he can pull their license and hit them with fines. Not that that behavior is new or shocking to me, it's just interesting to see it praised.
In the meantime maybe they could put out a coherent statement on what's going on.

I'm surprised that he is not keeping at least NYC shut down. I'm in N AL and we are just now beginning to open up. In my 4 county area there have only been a total of 4 deaths, so compared to NYC you would think we would be opening up a LOT quicker.
Cuomo did a great job of whining and being the squeaky wheel. He basically wanted the Federal government to send New York their entire stockpile of ventilators. Kept saying "we're not going to have enough." Well, guess what? They did get enough from the Federal government without getting their entire stockpile. And now he's continuing to whine about the state's financial situation and the how the Federal government needs to help. He got a ship. He got help from Samaritan's purse. He had the Javits center, but all of that is not enough. And now he's going to tax all those people who came to help including Samaritan's purse. Not just for the the income they made while working in NY, but for a year afterwards. Oh, but if the Feds will cough up the money he'll consider not taxing those people. Where does Cuomo think Federal money comes from.....the taxpayers. His is not the only state with a financial problem due to this virus.

@Icegoddess Well , I guess you are in the know. Are you one of his assistants? I think he's doing a great job. Hoping he would run for office soon.

I live in NYC I knew the governor was going to extend the stay. I hate this I can't wait for the day when things will slowly loosen up.

Not everyone in N Y State is from New York city! We live in the "real" upstate N Y. It's very rural. We are 20 minutes to the Canadian border. If you look at a map it's the far right tip. He needs to open very low counties slowly. We have had low numbers all along & it has gone way down. Not even many were hospitalized! One size doesn't fit all!

Well I did watch his daily news conferences. And as far as taxing the medical personnel who came to help there's this: https://www.forbes.com/sites/patrickgleason/2020/05/08/andrew-cuomo-confirms-new-york-will-tax-out-o...

That's disgraceful!! When I heard about that I was horrified!! You can bet his Mother, Matilda isn't in a nursing home. Some didn't even come from a nursing home!!! He is going to be looked at for letting something like this happen. I'm from NY & he could care less about all the rural communities that are hurting! We are an 8 hour drive to NYC!!
