The @IHME_UW model vs reality for New York State, April 5. The model is less accurate than ever. 69K beds projected, 16.5K actually needed; 12,346 ICU beds projected, 4376 needed. Even better (tho not for the model), overall bed count rose less than 600 statewide – less than 4%. pic.twitter.com/TfjtOQNUtq
Cuomo: New York may be hitting coronavirus apex as state deaths dip slightly
By Aaron Feis, NY Post, April 5, 2020:
An additional 594 New Yorkers have died from the coronavirus, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Sunday — a still staggering toll, but actually the first daily decline in some time, as hospitalizations also dropped.
By comparison, 630 fatalities were reported Saturday in the worst day yet.
A total of 4,159 New Yorkers have now been lost to the contagion out of 122,031 confirmed cases, said Cuomo, who advised more caution than optimism.
“The coronavirus is truly vicious and effective,” he said in his now-daily Albany press briefing. “It’s an effective killer.”
Speculating as to what could account for the statistical “blip,” Cuomo suggested that New York may now be hitting the disease’s apex, which could be taking the form of a leveling out more than a sharp peak.
“The apex could be a plateau and we could be on that plateau now,” he said, adding the trajectory would be more clear in a few days.
In another possible glimmer of hope, the number of new hospitalizations nearly halved on Sunday, to a level not seen in over a week.
A total of 574 new hospitalizations were reported Sunday, as compared to 1,095 on Saturday — itself a dip from the 1,427 tallied Friday.
The last time that fewer than 600 new hospitalizations were reported was March 22, with 586.
“That’s partially a function of more people being discharged,” he said. “And that’s great news.”

That’s good news! We are getting allot of NY spillover. Ours is still going up. One day we saw the death number double. It’s like this invisible blob slowly spreading down from the NE to the NW. They say we should be peaking in the next 2-3 weeks.
The NW is less densely populated so we are hoping we get less death. At the moment we are being surrounded. We rarely go out anywhere.
We want this to be done with!
