The rapid drop in COVID-19 cases across New York City continued over the past week, and the city’s Health Department reported that not one area of the Big Apple registered a 7-day positivity rate above 5%.
At the same time, between April 29-May 5, 35 ZIP codes in New York City — most of which were in Manhattan — logged 7-day positivity rates below 1%. It’s a dramatic turnaround from just four weeks ago, when nine areas of New York — mostly in the outer boroughs — tallied positivity rates of 10% or higher.
The lower numbers come at a time when New York City is gradually reopening and more New Yorkers continue to get vaccinated against the potentially deadly virus. To date, just shy of 7 million doses of the serum have been injected into the arms of residents across the five boroughs.
