NEW YORK - People who live in the epicenter of New York’s coronavirus outbreak said they were not convinced the state’s order closing the area’s schools and large-gathering venues for two weeks would do enough to curb the spread of infection.
Still, some residents believe the zone is too narrow to limit the spread of the disease, which has infected at least 216 people in New York, including more than 120 in Westchester. The cluster of some 121 cases in Westchester County emerged after an attorney who lives in New Rochelle and works in Manhattan became the second person in New York to be diagnosed with the virus last week.
“All of those factors were considered by the state, and they judged the containment zone to be a sensible way of proceeding,” Bramson said.
