The news that there were 1,005 positive cases Friday in the state came as New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio threatened to shut down private schools and non-essential businesses in certain Queens and Brooklyn neighborhoods where COVID-19 cases have surged recently.

Officials have targeted nine neighborhoods – home to large communities of ultra-Orthodox families – where there is less compliance with wearing face coverings and keeping 6 feet apart compared to other parts of the city.

City health officials said they want to see progress on compliance by Monday night or they will take action.
