    1. Sanna B From what I understand you can not “cure” a virus and they mutate. That being said as more people survive the virus, the less it will affect. The Covid-19 vaccination, once developed will be similar to the influenza vaccine where it may not stop you from getting the virus, but it will provide enough immunity to lesson the impact of the virus.

    1. Global warming will depend on how much we use our resources responsibly and how much emissions that the Governments around the world allow their large companies to emit. Stronger and lower emission levels and less driving unnecessary or using public transit all helps.

    2. @Teresa S There is nothing that can be done about the different climate changes. It’s just how the world’s environments operate. There have been climate changes all throughout history.

    1. WOW. NYS has been victimized by this mafioso tyrant for years. Upstaters were NEVER fortunate to have their tax dollars get used to either line the pockets of Albany legislature, or illegals. I guess you stood in place and cheered as this ghoul signed off on infanticide..those pink ballons were markers of death. THEN there’s the embezzler of THRIVENYC, billy deblahblah, & his wife. 1.8 billion never did nuthin for nobody, and the wife couldn’t account for the money gone missing.

    1. mountopian 1 how is this “Fake News”? Basically it is the same message given by many world leaders.

  1. I notice the media is not trying to ask question that make the Governor look dumb. Why does our media try and make our president look stupid. Stick to covering news and let the public vote and decide who is in office. I didn’t like Obama, do you need to trash him every minute of the day! Wise up folks.

    1. Joe DeMatteo The media doesn’t have to make the current President look stupid. It is hard to get respect from media when the President constantly treats them disrespectfully when he doesn’t like a question, or call all their stories “fake news”. You want to be treated respectfully, you need to treat others respectfully, which so far I haven’t seen from the current a President. By the way the republicans and and a Fox News did.

  2. A lot of news are being now published throughout the world about the infection, but there is nothing to help the people for facing the hard situation, concerning the diet and foods as well as all pratices they should do for they can fight the disease.

    1. The original models showed more cases because they were not sure if mitigation was going to work or be practiced. People stayed in and the estimate of cases went down. Actually data started to be used in the models and we got a better number of how many are infected. Also people shared ventilators which was a plan B action while waiting for more ventilators. Then as weeks passed less people got infected. It was a scramble for ventilators a month ago when we were still hitting the Apex. 51 days is how long NY has had cases. We are on the other side of the Apex now. Oregon gave us ventilators weeks ago which helped. Trumps stock pile could never have fulfilled that quota because they only have 10,000 in stockpile for the whole nation.

    1. Julie Sobinsky None yet although a treatment with a drug called chloroquine does create a reaction against the virus.

  3. Capitalism works when private companies are well run. When private companies are well run, good safety records for example, they succeed. If they are badly run, they fail and that’s capitalism at work! Boeing has had two crashes recently, killing nearly 1,000 people. It is a private, poorly run company, with a lousy safety record, high compensation for the CEO, while workers are not well compensated and don’t have outstanding health benefits. There are many well run airlines. Boeing is not one of them. Let the competition succeed (healthy capitalism). Let Boeing die (healthy capitalism). No need to spend billions bailing out a badly run, unsafe, airline company. No need to bail out fast food, including but not limited to Wendys, McDonalds, Burger King, Popeyes that has helped cause health problems in poor populations who live in food deserts. Federal government should give the states that $$ instead of badly run private businesses. YES to Hazard pay for workers. Good idea! Is the Governor proposing an increase of 50% of their annual pay? He stated 50% raise but 50% of what? New York state does need money from the Federal government. We also need to tax the 112 billionaires that have reside here, including Bezos who owns three triplexes in NYC and pays zero in state/Federal taxes. Please speak about the age of the black population in New York. Many younger blacks have been forced out of NY (gentrification) and the black population in NYC in particular is older. Covid in Italy affected the older population, 75 and up and within the black community in NYC, there are many older people, which is one reason they are dying. what is the average age of the blacks who are dying? Also, please address the blood connection of Covid disease. One theory regarding the blood aspect of this disease is that people of certain blood types may be more prone to getting the virus and succumbing to it.

  4. Time to End the Coronavirus Crisis, Before the ‘Cure’ Kills our US Economy $🚗🏈⚾️🏒🏑🍺🥕🍗☕️🍷🍻$

  5. Thank you! Only one problem tell the truth about how many people have died there. My brother stay in new york he said his girl work a the nursing home. It’s more whites in the rich community dieing more then the black and brown.

  6. It’s time to tell the truth. I’m glade you said we as of color dieing because we have to work. At the same time your people at home talking about they have “”cabin fever.” We dieing for you and our family at the same time.” But” we black people not getting payed for this mess. Are going to get reparations for this. The white people already asking for reparations. For what? They need to pay us black people before they pay the China people.

  7. My brother said in new york it’s not over 17 thousands died. That’s a lie, its 7millons people stay in new york. It’s “only ” 100 thousand that died.

  8. Governor Cuomo is such a better leader than Trump. He is smart, articulate, and seems to have all of us in mind. Prior to this I was not a fan. Now, I am a fan.

  9. Top of the mountain=dead humans
    It will be over when you either have got it and lived. Immune. Or stayed on long enough for a vaccine. But its the later their waiting for to die.
