As of Friday, May 22, 133,384 Westchester residents have been tested for COVID-19, with 32,767 testing positive for the virus, according to the state Department of Health. Since the outbreak began in New Rochelle in mid-March, 1,319 county residents have died from the virus.

Westchester, which is in the mid-Hudson region, may be able to enter Phase 1 of the state’s reopening plan as long as deaths in the Hudson Valley continue to decline, Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced on Friday.

“If the number of deaths continues to decline the way it has, and they get their tracing online, those two regions are ready to enter phase 1,” he said. “We’re going to allow construction staging now for Long Island and the mid-Hudson, and hopefully the deaths decline and we can reopen next week.”
