Not sure about testing volume—Cuomo doesn't usually announce those numbers—though it's been fairly constant from day to day in New York.

In many states and countries, Tuesdays are often pretty bad days since you're catching up from slow reporting on the weekend. So that's an encouraging number.

Meanwhile, net hospitalizations are up, but only modestly, and daily ICU admissions are down.

In many places, Tuesdays are bad since you're catching up from slow reporting on the weekend. So that's an encouraging number.

Meanwhile, net hospitalizations are up (+656) from the weekend, but much slower than last week (~1,200 per day) and lowest ICU number (89) in ~2 weeks.

The bad news, as Cuomo said, is that NY recorded its highly daily death toll, 731, vs. an average of ~600 for the previous four days. As he also said, deaths are likely to lag behind other indicators that show the slope bending.
