New York sees potential slowing of coronavirus outbreak
In thousands of care facilities, where the coronavirus’ deadly toll has been acutely felt, staffers are growing scared, sick and overwhelmed as cases and deaths mount.In Illinois, 43 deaths represented the state’s lowest daily total in almost a week.
St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City went online even as residents took to their windows and balconies to sing “Christ the Lord Is Risen Today” in a mass celebration orchestrated by a local Presbyterian church. “I think it’s disrespectful not only for the people who show up to church but to all the people of Louisiana,” Lt. Gov. Billy Nungesser told CNN. “Somebody’s going to get infected and spread it to other people.”In Kansas, Republican legislators challenged a ban on large religious gatherings in hopes of allowing congregations to open their doors. Late Saturday night, the state Supreme Court upheld the governor’s stay-at-home order.
“As much as we’ve plateaued, we can see another spike in short order,” he said. “We have to be prepared for the long haul.”
