"The statewide level of positives was 0.84%, with Long Island logging in at 0.6%, according to state data released Thursday." https://www.newsday.com/news/health/...d19-1.48085212

87,900 tested statewide.

Obviously those not comforted by the fact LIers have essentially stopped dying of Covid (1 total death over the last 15+ days) are not going to be reassured at that very low test positivity rate.

On the bright side, the NYS public school threshold for physically opening is 5% (over 2 weeks) so we are well within that - if one wants to see kids resume in-person education.

Good to see low numbers like that approaching school opening. Hopefully it continues to remain that low.
