New York broke a new testing record yesterday, with over 159,000 tests reported.

We do more testing than any other state in the country.

For context, the entire country of France reported just under 200,000 tests yesterday.

(1/6) This #SundaySpotlight on #PublicHealth is focused on the facts regarding masks and face coverings. Follow along 👇 & remember – I wear my mask to protect you, and you wear yours to protect me. #COVID19

[U.S. Surgeon General @Surgeon_General]

Critical point from Dr. Fauci at today’s task force brief- every person who gets #coronavirus on average infects AT LEAST one other person. So choosing not to social distance or wear a mask isn’t just about you- you’ll likely infect (and could kill) someone else.

The Comfort brings 1,000 much-needed hospital beds & 1,200 personnel to New York. I'll be in NYC to receive a briefing upon its arrival.

To each and every doctor putting his or her life at risk to save the lives of others, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

You are the unwavering front line soldiers, angels and heroes in this war.

You make New York proud.

Public health people need to be sharing information, but let’s be sharing effectively by..

1.) Check your intentions and your audience
2.) Triple check your sources
3.) Share from experts
4.) Share the *verified* positive stuff too!

If it’s public health versus the economy, the only choice is public health. You cannot put a value on human life.

You do the right thing. That’s what Pop taught us @ChrisCuomo

If you ever find yourself needing a quick fix for a stressful situation, deep breathing is one of the most reliable and simple ways to calm yourself down and help your heart. This Monday, take a few deep breaths for heart health! #NationalHeartMonth #APHA #CHPPD #DeStressMonday

Places with high black infant and maternal mortality do not protect the vulnerable. On #MLKDAY don't forget the suburbs are the worst offenders. Our op-ed calls to make this injustice visible. @LIWomenDvrsty @bjustwarriors Vestiges of racism still linger https://t.co/6IOmW5Q20c
