‘You have the right to party. But let’s be smart about it.’

, with new cases, hospitalizations and deaths down across the state, but he had a few choice words for people ages 21 to 30 years old, which he said is the only age group for which the rate of positive coronavirus tests is rising.... [+]Cuomo said the rate of New Yorkers ages 21 to 30 who tested positive for the virus had risen more than four points over the past two weeks, from 9.9% to 13.2%, which he called “a significant increase in a short period of time,” and unique to their age group.

“We know why,” Cuomo said. ”You get groups of young people, it’s warm, you’ve been locked up for a long time, we like to socialize, I get it. You don’t socially distance, you don’t wear masks, the virus spreads.”in his plea: “This is not the time to fight for your right to party,” Cuomo said, adding that “I respect your right to party, I fully respect it. I would enshrine it in state law, if you want to know. You have the right to party. But let’s be smart about it.

Some young people have an attitude that they’re immune to the virus—but they’re wrong, Cuomo said, adding that if it isn’t fatal to them, they could bring it home to someone more vulnerable, like an aging family member. Cuomo called on local government and police to enforce social distancing guidelines, although he acknowledged that it is difficult and politically unpopular—earlier this week, he announced that

bars and eateries had their liquor license revoked for alleged violations of social distancing policies,At the presser, Cuomo showed an advertisement that’s part of a new campaign to teach young people about the risk of the virus, in which the words “I’m young, Covid won’t kill me,” are deemed potential “famous last words.”“It’s been six months,” Cuomo stressed multiple times. “We know what Covid is about. We’ve been talking about testing and tracing and quarantine. It’s been six months.
