New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said that schools, houses of worship, and businesses in an area of New Rochelle, a city just north of New York City, will be closed for two weeks in an effort to stem the spread of the new coronavirus.
One of the largest clusters of COVID-19 cases in the nation is centered in the Westchester County locale. After a lawyer who lives in New Rochelle and works in the borough of Manhattan in New York City tested positive, his family, and a neighbor who drove him to a hospital also tested positive for the illness.
