Written by Andre on January 4, 2022
In Rochester Covid-19 numbers continue to rise and NY Governor Kathy Hochul was in town to hold a briefing. The positive cases here in Monroe County on Monday were 1,171 which are due to a “backlog” from the holidays. Gov. Hochul started her briefing off by saying “we are not in a good place…”
She addressed the winter surge that is upon us as predicted and is asking all hospitals across the state to change their Covid reporting. The change in how hospitals report is to begin tomorrow. She is asking hospitals to show if the patients are being treated for Covid-19 or if they are being treated for something else then tested positive for the virus.
Here is her full briefing from Rochester, NY on Monday.
