Partner...

NY working with 6 Northeast states to reopen economy


New York will partner with six other Northeast states to buy critical coronavirus supplies, and Empire State officials will mandate hospitals statewide to stockpile at least 90 days’ worth of protective gear in preparation for a possible second wave of the contagion, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Sunday.
New York and its six partners — New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Rhode Island and Massachusetts — will now enter the marketplace together to buy some $5 billion of personal protective equipment, tests, ventilators and other equipment from companies and overseas suppliers.
The seven states are already partnered to move towards a gradual reopening of their respective economies. But that story didn't hold. 

New York is behind other States since it is highly condensed in NYC. Rhode Island and other State either did reopen or on its way. Not waiting for Cuomo's plan. 

This plan of cooperation is a day late and a dollar short. Each State has its own population, budget, economics and number of death. New York State is the highest in Covid 19 death, a result of the politicians' policies. Reopen NYC will take a miracle.
