ALBANY, N.Y. — Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Tuesday morning reported that New York state had 731 COVID-19 deaths in the last day, up from 599 deaths reported the day before.
It was the highest daily total of deaths and one-day increase in deaths since the coronavirus crisis started in the state several weeks ago.
The number of coronavirus cases in New York rose by 8,147 (or 6.2 percent) to 138,836 total cases. That was down from the 8,658 (or 7.1 percent) case increase Monday. It was the fourth straight day of lower percentage increases in COVID-19 cases.

“Let’s not get complacent. We have to stay disciplined,” Cuomo said about the measures the state has taken on social distancing.
