The epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak in the U.S. is in New York, and is particularly concentrated in the New York City region. As of Saturday evening, 28,900 people had died. On May 6, the state reported a significant uptick in deaths due to the inclusion of new data on nursing home and adult care facility deaths dating back to March 1.
But the number of new cases in the state has reached a plateau, at least for now, and Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo has talked about re-opening areas upstate after May 15.
Cases in New York
Note: The map shows the known locations of coronavirus cases by county. For total cases and deaths: Circles are sized by the number of people there who have tested positive or have a probable case of the virus, which may differ from where they contracted the illness. For hot spots: Doubling time is calculated for the last week of cases. Sources: State and local health agencies and hospitals.

Note: Growth rate shows how frequently the number of cases has doubled over the previous seven days. The fastest rate color shows when cases are doubling in less than 3 days, while the slowest rate color shows when cases are doubling much more slowly, once every 30 days or longer. Growth rate not shown for counties with fewer than 20 cases.
In the tallies shown on this page, The Times is now including cases and deaths in some counties that have been identified by public health officials as probable coronavirus patients.
New York City has also seen a decline in new cases from a peak in early April.
While the city is nothing like its former loud bustling self, some building sites have re-opened, albeit with new routines. The workers begin the day with a thermal forehead scan, they wear masks even when they’re on break and they stand on floor markings to maintain social distancing.
The pandemic has exacerbated many inequities across the city. Preliminary data on deaths from the coronavirus shows that the outbreak is killing black and Latino people at twice the rate that it’s killing white people. And within the healthcare system, wealthy private hospitals have been able to use political clout and cash reserves to secure protective gear and testing capacity while others rely on GoFundMe pages.

The New York Times has found that official tallies in the United States and in more than a dozen other countries have undercounted deaths during the coronavirus outbreak because of limited testing availability.
About the data
In data for the United States, The Times is now including cases and deaths that have been identified by public health officials as probable coronavirus patients. Most states and counties only report figures in which a coronavirus infection was confirmed through testing. Because confirmed cases are widely considered to be an undercount of the true toll, some state and local governments have started identifying probable cases and deaths using criteria that were developed by states and the federal government.
Confirmed cases and deaths are counts of individuals whose coronavirus infections were confirmed by a laboratory test. Probable cases and deaths count individuals who did not have a confirmed test but were evaluated using criteria developed by national and local governments. Some governments are reporting only confirmed cases, while others are reporting both confirmed and probable numbers. And there is also another set of governments that are reporting the two types of numbers combined without providing a way to separate the confirmed from the probable. The Times is now using the total of confirmed and probable counts when they are available individually or combined. Otherwise only the confirmed count will be shown.

What you can do
Experts’ understanding of how the virus spreads is still limited, but there are four factors that most likely play a role: how close you get; how long you are near the person; whether that person projects viral droplets on you; and how much you touch your face.
If your community is affected, you can help reduce your risk and do your part to protect others by following some basic steps:
* Wash your hands! Scrub with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, and then dry them with a clean towel or let them air dry.
* Keep distance from sick people. Try to stay six feet away from anybody showing flu- or cold-like symptoms, and don’t go to work if you’re sick.
* Prepare your family, and communicate your plan about evacuations, resources and supplies. Experts suggest stocking at least a 30-day supply of any needed prescriptions. Consider doing the same for food staples, laundry detergent and diapers, if you have small children.
Here’s a complete guide on how you can prepare for the coronavirus outbreak.
