Cuomo prepares state for COVID-19 surge

Gov. Andrew Cuomo launched the “NY Stronger Together” campaign urging New Yorkers to stay home, stop the spread and save lives. As part of the campaign, celebrities including Robert De Niro, Danny DeVito, Ben Stiller and La La Anthony have sent videos of themselves at home to reinforce the governor’s message that young people must stay home not for themselves, but to help protect older and more vulnerable New Yorkers.

Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo announced an initial delivery of hospital supplies to the Jacob K. Javits Center where FEMA has started to build a 1,000-bed temporary hospital that will help increase New York’s hospital capacity to combat COVID-19 and open next week. This is in addition to the four sites selected by the U.S. Army Corps. of Engineers that will create temporary hospitals in downstate New York with total capacity of up to 4,000.

The federal administration has deployed 339,760 N-95 masks, 861,700 surgical masks, 353,300 gloves, 145,122 gowns and 197,085 face shields to New York State, with many state supplies already located at the Javits Center.

The governor also announced that three former secretaries to the governor—Steve Cohen, Bill Mulrow and Larry Schwartz— are joining the Governor’s COVID-19 Task Force. Mulrow and Cohen will be tasked with developing a “NYS Forward Plan”—a strategy to restart the economy following the “NYS on Pause” executive order. Schwartz is tasked with

helping the state acquire healthcare equipment and supplies and increasing New York’s hospital surge capacity.

On Tuesday, March 24, Gov. Cuomo signed an executive order requiring all hospitals to increase capacity by a minimum of 50 percent, with a goal of increasing capacity by 100 percent.

To support hospital surge capacity, the Cuomo also announced the State Department of Financial Services is requesting that health insurers disclose the number of nurses, doctors and other health professionals they employ so the state can reach out to those employees and ask them to temporarily serve in the medical field during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Cuomo also announced that the FDA has approved the use of a new experimental drug in New York on a compassionate care basis to help treat patients with COVID-19. The trial will use antibody injections to help stimulate and promote individuals’ immune systems against the virus.

The federal government has agreed to cover 100 percent of the

cost for the National Guard. Separately, the governor has also requested 100 percent federal cost share under New York’s major disaster declaration that was approved on Friday, March 20.

Additionally, it was announced that the state is opening a drive-thru COVID-19 mobile testing facility in the Bronx. This follows the success of the mobile testing centers in New Rochelle, Rockland County, Staten Island and Long Island in addition to the Bronx.

Drive-through mobile testing facilities help keep people who are sick or at risk of having contracted coronavirus out of healthcare facilities where they could infect other people. New York is currently testing more than 16,000 people per day, more than any other state and more than China and South Korea on a per capital basis.

The governor also launched the “NY Stronger Together” campaign urging New Yorkers to stay home, stop the spread and save lives. As part of the campaign, celebrities including Robert De Niro, Danny DeVito, Ben Stiller and La La Anthony have sent videos of themselves at

home to reinforce the governor’s message that young people must stay home not for themselves, but to help protect older and more vulnerable New Yorkers.

The campaign will also aim to highlight donations from major corporations, celebrities, philanthropic organizations to help increase the state’s supply capacity.

“We know that the most effective way to reduce the rate of spread of the virus is to reduce density and increase testing, and we have a plan in place to do just that,” Cuomo said. «We›ve taken every action that government can take to reduce density and we are testing more than any other state in country, and now we must focus on increasing our hospital capacity and our supply stockpile as quickly as we can to ensure our healthcare system is prepared to handle the apex of the wave. We also still have issues with density control, especially in New York City, and we are continuing to encourage all New Yorkers to think of others and stay inside as much as possible to protect our most vulnerable populations.

The new policy is the latest action taken by Latimer to protect frontline employees from COVID-19, and stop the spread.

Letter to the Editor

Re: Inclusion of Arts in COVID-19 relief package To the Editor, Negotiations are ongoing in the Senate on what is being called "Phase Three" of the COVID-19 response relief package. As you unfortunately know, the coronavirus has already had a devastating economic impact on America's nonprofit arts sector—financial losses to date are estimated to be $3.6 billion.

The U.S. Senate legislation under consideration today has several items we've been asking for—your advocacy has been working! For example, there is some funding for the NEA, but it's not enough. Self-employed artists, creative workers and nonprofits appear to be included in the Paycheck Protection and Small Business Administration disaster loan provisions, but we need to ensure they are included in the final bill version. More advocacy is needed.

In order to support the sector at this vital time, request that your members of Congress include the following in the current legislative package currently being negotiated: •Support $4 billion in COVID-19 relief funding to be administered by the National Endowment for the Arts, with additional funding for the National Endowment for the Humanities, and the Institute of Museum and Library Services—House Arts Caucus Co-Chair Rep. Chellie Pingree (D-ME) and House STEAM Caucus Co-Chair Rep. Suzanne Bonamici (D-OR) led a letter to House Leadership with this ask, Senate Cultural Caucus Co-Chair Sen. Tom Udall (D-NM) did the same in the Senate. Waive matching requirements and general operating support reprogramming for FY2020 grantees, as well as for COVID-19-specific grantmaking; •Encourage charitable giving by increasing the allowable amount of the proposed $300 above-the-line tax deduction available to taxpayers that do not itemize their returns, and removing AGI limits on allowed deductions for charitable giving; •Ensure that proposed forgivable SBA disaster relief loans support all arts and culture workers by: specifying that access to forgivable loans is available for self-employed workers, increasing the employer eligibility threshold by applying the 500 employee cap to fulltime employees, and eliminating the employer size cap for nonprofit organizations; •Support pandemic unemployment benefits for workers ineligible for state unemployment benefits, which will provide essential support for self-employed workers in the arts and culture sector; and •Ensure arts eligibility for additional forms of disaster relief, such as Community Development Block Grants, education and lifelong learning programs, and health and wellness initiatives.

•In a national survey by Americans for the Arts, 91 percent of responding arts organizations indicated that they have cancelled one or more events. Many arts organizations have closed their doors for months to come. These estimates are based on more than 5,000 respondents to an Americans for the Arts nationwide COVID-19 impact survey, and then further extrapolation of those data nationally using IRS data about nonprofit arts and cultural organizations. The most recent figures show economic losses of $3.6 billion to date, up from $3.2 billion last week. The survey is ongoing, and these figures will be updated regularly. Given that losses documented in the survey have occurred only in the last two months, Americans for the Arts anticipates additional billions in potential revenue losses for the nonprofit arts and culture field.

Join us in calling on Congress now to include the aforementioned items in the final package for COVID-19 relief.

Janet Langsam, CEO ArtsWestchester

Letter to the Editor

Sound Shore St. Patrick’s Day Parade postponed To the Editor: After much thought and consideration, The Sound Shore St. Patrick’s Day Parade Committee has decided to postpone the annual parade, which was scheduled to be held on Sunday, March 22. The committee has discussed the ever-changing situation that is currently taking place and have prioritized the well-being of the valued members of the Sound Shore community. We look forward to marching down Mamaroneck Avenue to celebrate our 2020 grand marshall, Kate Bialo, in the near future. Kate would like to say to the Sound Shore community that,” We are in an unprecedented and challenging situation, not just in Westchester, but worldwide. I applaud our parade committee’s wise decision to postpone our event in the interest of public health. We look forward to celebrating better times with our Sound Shore neighbors with a rescheduled parade that will be the best ever.”

We appreciate your patience as we chose a new date to celebrate our Irish heritage and the American immigrant experience. We will come through this together.

Michael Murphy, Mamaroneck

prominent Irish-American community leaders T he Westchester County Board of Legislators on Monday, March 16, celebrated three outstanding leaders—Claire O’Gara Grimes, ground-breaking female journalist, and former owner and publisher of the Irish Echo; William J. Powers, media personality, and the voice and face of the Peekskill St. Patrick’s Day Parade; and Thomas G. Tuffy, trustee of the County Sligo Social & Benevolent Association, and owner of TG Tuffy Interiors, Inc. in Yonkers—as part of the board’s annual Irish History and Heritage celebration.

The annual celebration was kicked off by a lively performance by the Pipes and Drums of the Police Emerald Society of Westchester.

In his opening remarks, Board Chairman Ben Boykin said, “There’s no separating the history of this County with the history of the Irish people in Westchester. Irish history in Westchester goes all the way back to the Colonial era. At that time, many of Westchester’s Irish residents came here as educators bringing their knowledge, intellect and a spirit of service to communities throughout this County, as spirit which persists today.”

County Legislator Kitley Covill

presented the first proclamation to journalism trailblazer, Claire O’Gara Grimes. Covill said, “The Irish Echo is the voice of Irish America and I am so pleased to honor Claire O’Gara Grimes for having the courage to continue her husband’s legacy as publisher and owner of this vital media resource for so many years.”

Grimes thanked the chairman and the board by saying, “thank you so much for allowing us to wave the Irish flag today and salute this wee country which has produced four Poet Laureates and five Nobel peace prize winners. While at the helm of the Irish Echo, I had the pleasure of chronicling Irish influence

around the world, and espousing faith, family and country which are at the heart of Irish culture.”

County Legislator Colin Smith presented the second proclamation to Peekskill personality William J. Powers.

“Mr. Powers has been a fixture in the Peekskill business community for many years, as well as a veteran member the St. Patrick’s Day Parade committee. I’ve personally known Bill for several years and have long admired his dedication to his community.

He is a humble man who rarely seeks the spotlight, and most deserving of this recognition.”

Powers recalled the bagpipes and firetrucks of the St. Patrick’s

Day parades of his childhood, and how much he has enjoyed celebrating his Irish heritage as parade announcer in Peekskill for the past 30 years.

“The only time I missed being the announcer was the night I served as Grand Marshal, after which my mother said to me with tears in her eyes ‘This is the best night of my life’…,” Powers said.

County Legislator David Tubiolo gave the third proclamation to Thomas G. Tuffy of Yonkers. “We have some very special people who help make our vibrant Irish community ‘home’ and one of these esteemed people, is none other than our very own Thomas G. Tuffy, who has truly demonstrated ‘meitheal’, which is Gaelic for helping one’s neighbor and giving back to the community,” Tubiolo said.

Mr. Tuffy responded, “I am especially delighted to receive this honor along with Claire and Bill, who have done so much in their own communities. I accept this on behalf of my parents who are alive and well in County Sligo, and who instilled in me the value of contributing to the community and giving back. Thank you to my wife and children for supporting me and allowing me to serve…” (Submitted)

Virus affecting sports schedule

very conflicted about it because schools and businesses hadn’t been shut down yet, they had played the regional semifinals on Wednesday, and this was going just to be five-on-five in a gym with no spectators,” he said. “But once everything got shut down, I think it shows that they made the right decision in

trying to contain this.”

But even understanding the decision did little to quell Aguilar’s disappointment as he watched the high school careers of his seniors—a group that was responsible for capturing Rye’s first Section I title in 31 years— come to an end.

“Johnson City is a tough team

and they certainly could have beaten us, but it’s one thing for a season to end that way, as opposed to the way it did,” he said. “Even though they finished the season with a win, there’s no closure, and I think they deserved that.”

By MIKE SMITH Sports Editor As the spread of the coronavirus has continued to disrupt nearly every facet of American life over the last week, it should come as no surprise that the Section I spring athletics season is no exception. With public schools in the area closed indefinitely, Section I Executive Director Todd Santabarbara released a statement on March 16 announcing that all interscholastic athletic programs are to halt all practices, scrimmages and games until the impact of COVID-19 can be reassessed on March 30.

But while the pandemic is threatening to put an end to the spring season before it begins, it also forced several local winter teams to give up on their quest for state titles last week.

One such squad was the Class A Section I boys basketball champion Rye Garnets, whose season came to an abrupt end on March 12 when the New York State Public High School Athletics Association, NYSPHSAA,

decided to postpone all winter season championships indefinitely. At the time of the cancelation, the Garnets were preparing for a March 13 regional final showdown against Section IV champ Johnson City at SUNY Purchase.

Prior to the cancelation, the NYSPHSAA toyed with other ideas to contain the spread of the virus, such as barring all spectators from the venue.

“We knew that cancelation was a possibility, but up until the moment we found out, we heard the game was still going to be on,” Rye head coach John Aguilar said. “We drove up to Binghamton on Wednesday to watch Johnson City play New Paltz, wrote up the whole scouting report and were ready to get to work on Thursday when we found out. The kids were devastated.”

Although Aguilar acknowledged that cancelation of the tournament was ultimately the right call, he admitted that it was a difficult decision to process in the moment.

“I think at that time we felt
