| May 27, 2021. Dear Robert, New Yorkers have worked hard to contain the
spread of the virus and their tireless efforts are being proven more and more
successful every day. Yesterday, the State recorded the lowest positivity rate
since August 27 and our 7-day positivity rate has been declining for 52
straight days. As we head into Memorial Day weekend, I encourage New Yorkers to
remain vigilant, celebrate responsibly and if you haven't already—get
vaccinated. On Monday, we will take a moment to remember our fallen servicemen
and women who sacrificed their lives to protect our freedoms and our security.
Have a nice and safe weekend. PROGRAMMING NOTE: The Coronavirus newsletter
will not publish on Monday, May 31, in observance of Memorial Day. The Monday
edition will be published on Tuesday, June 1. Photo of the Day: The Old
Westbury mass vaccination site administered their 70,000th dose to a
12-year-old young man. Here's what else you need to know tonight: 1.
Schools will reopen for full in-person learning this September. Based on the
current COVID trajectory, all New York State schools will reopen for full
in-person learning for the 2021-2022 school year. There is no substitute for
in-person learning and as things currently stand, there is no reason why our
students should not get back to in-person learning as usual. 2. COVID
hospitalizations dropped to 1,223. Of the 162,450 tests reported yesterday,
1,055, or 0.65 percent, were positive. The 7-day average percent positivity was
0.81 percent. There were 300 patients in ICU yesterday, up three from the
previous day. Of them, 177 are intubated. Sadly, we lost 10 New Yorkers to the
virus. 3. As of 11am this morning, 64.4 percent of adult New Yorkers have
completed at least one vaccine dose. Over the past 24 hours, 87,791 total doses
have been administered. To date, New York administered 18,715,969 total doses
with 55.8 percent of adult New Yorkers completing their vaccine series. See
additional data on the State's Vaccine Tracker. 4. Get a shot to make your
future. New Yorkers age 12 to 17 who get vaccinated (or already have gotten
vaccinated) can enter for a chance to win a 4-year full-ride scholarship to any
public college or university in New York State. Fifty total winners will be
chosen at five random drawings. The scholarship includes full tuition, room and
board, as well as an allowance for books and supplies. Parents can learn more
here: ny.gov/vaccinescholarship. 5. Reminder that New Yorkers are entitled
to a paid sick day if they need a day to recover after getting the COVID-19
vaccine. The New York State Department of Labor is issuing guidance to all
employers that any necessary recovery period from the COVID-19 vaccine is
covered by New York's Paid Sick Leave Law. This builds on legislation granting
public and private employees time off to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. 6.
The pop-up vaccination sites at Grand Central Terminal and Penn Station will be
extended for another week. New Yorkers can get a free seven-day MetroCard or a
free round-trip Long Island Rail Road or Metro-North ticket after receiving the
vaccine at these pop-up sites. 7. The Saratoga Race Course will reopen to
fans on July 15. In conjunction with the New York Racing Association, today we
announced that Saratoga Race Course will reopen to fans at near full capacity
when the 2021 summer meet begins on July 15. In addition, all fans who show
proof of vaccination through Excelsior Pass, or alternate forms of proof, will
receive free grandstand general admission. Tonight's "Deep Breath Moment":
With the help of her classmates, a New York school athlete diagnosed with
cancer returned to the racetrack and crossed the finish line. Shenendehowa High
School senior Yeva Klingbeil was diagnosed with rhabdomyosarcoma in November
2019 but was able to participate in her team's 4x2 relay race at this week's
track meet. After crossing the finish line, her teammates rushed to
congratulate Yeva, filling the air with chants and applause. Read more. If
