On Wednesday, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said\u00a0the city could soon entirely be deemed an \u2018orange zone\u2019<\/a>\u00a0if the rolling coronavirus infection rate in the city, as measured by the state, hits 3%. The state\u2019s seven-day rate was 2.5% on Wednesday, while the city\u2019s measure was 3.0%.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe orange zone rules are clear and New York City will before long be in that \u2018orange zone\u2019 status,\u201d the mayor said at his daily press briefing on Thursday. \u201cAnd that means those restrictions are coming.<\/p>\n

Those restrictions are likely going to be implemented in the next week or two and \u201ca lot of tough choices\u201d are going to be made across the board, which will impact various parts of the city, according to the mayor.<\/p>\n
