The number of New Yorkers who have contracted coronavirus is falling, but only by a little bit.

The statewide COVID-19 positivity rate has dropped from 5.6 % to 5.3 %. Over the last few days, the Capital Region's average infection rate has been hovering just below the 6 % mark. Governor Cuomo said earlier this week if the spread of the virus doesn't slow down soon, another statewide shutdown is possible.
