New York City is now the epicenter of America’s largest Coronavirus outbreak. Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, briefing reporters on Monday, said that the worst of the coronavirus outbreak was yet to come, even as another 253 people died in the state in a 24-hour period. He  said that 1,218 people had died in New York, up from 965 on Sunday morning. “If you wait to prepare for a storm to hit, it is too late,” the governor said. “You have to prepare before the storm hits. And in this case the storm is when you hit that high point, when you hit that apex. How do you know when you’re going to get there? You don’t.” New York reported almost 7,000 new cases of the virus, bringing the total to nearly 66,500.
