Not sure about testing volume—Cuomo doesn& #39;t usually announce those numbers—though it& #39;s been fairly constant from day to day in New York.

In many states and countries, Tuesdays are often pretty bad days since you& #39;re catching up from slow reporting on the weekend. So that& #39;s an encouraging number.

Meanwhile, net hospitalizations are up, but only modestly, and daily ICU admissions are down.

In many places, Tuesdays are bad since you& #39;re catching up from slow reporting on the weekend. So that& #39;s an encouraging number.

Meanwhile, net hospitalizations are up (+656) from the weekend, but much slower than last week (~1,200 per day) and lowest ICU number (89) in ~2 weeks.

The bad news, as Cuomo said, is that NY recorded its highly daily death toll, 731, vs. an average of ~600 for the previous four days. As he also said, deaths are likely to lag behind other indicators that show the slope bending.
