Gov. Hochul Wants New Information About COVID Patients

Starting today, Governor Hochul is asking hospitals statewide to change the way they report COVID-19 cases.

The governor wants hospitals to clearly identify which patients are being treated for the illness and which patients tested positive after going to the hospital for another reason.

The governor says she wants the data in order to show New Yorkers how bad the health crisis is.

Hochul says hospital capacity has improved a bit in recent weeks and fewer facilities are having to limit elective surgeries.
