Andrew Cuomo on Monday urged the New York City Police Department to "step up" in enforcing social distancing rules on bars and restaurants as coronavirus hospitalizations in the state hit a new low.

New York conducted about 54,000 tests on Sunday and less than 1% came back positive for Covid-19, Cuomo said on a conference call with reporters. The state also hit new lows for the number of people hospitalized, in intensive care and intubated, he said. "We need the NYPD to step up," he said, adding the state issued 19 violations to bars or restaurants on Sunday.

But not stop looting, shootings and gang violence. NYGovCuomo you have neutered the police. They aren’t going to do much of anything now. They really no longer care. This is what you Satanic evil Democrats have created. Now live with it.

So does the Bedminster PD.

NYGovCuomo is this part of your plan to cover up all the people you murdered? Lol. You’re just as bad as Trump NYGovCuomo!

Police state in NY under Cuomo? Yikes! When will Andrew be arrested for killing thousands of NY elderly with his failed state nursing home policy?

I’ve figured this all out. Republicans want teachers to do more but, cut funding. Democrats want police to do more but, cut funding. All a money scheme.

I thought he wanted to defund them.

Yea.. forget about the 1 year olds getting hit with stray bullets...ignore the homeless and crime.

The NYPD that you want to defund? They should enforce social distancing but not looting and more? Come on man!

defund police. let new Yorkers die, who cares about cuomo

Maybe start with the looting -assholes first?🤔🤔

Don’t worry about the shootings or muggings!

May start with murder and rape first.

😮

Shut up fake news. Praying for you

NYGovCuomo lol!!! How about stepping up Law Enforcement & bringing law & order back NYC? Ohhhhh & grow some balls & get rid of that Doucebag mayor! BilldeBlasio

Of course.. More police strong arming is exactly what's missing right now.

Social distancing 😂😂 In Ny ! 😭😭😭😭

apart frim his beloved “peaceful” protestors i assume, who are above all laws

$1,000.00 fine ought to do the trick....

How will that be possible when the children return to school?

What are you talking about!!!Have you seen what’s been going on in the city have you

😂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 after they’ve gotten treated the way they have by people. Yeahhh, okay. How’s the DefundPolice working out. BoyWhoCriedWolf

Aw, if you’d just defunded then, all would be groovy.

How about you worry about Jamals not murdering Jeromes.

Oh that will end well! Wants to defund them but wants them to enforce “rules”? You can’t make this stuff up.

Lmao

how about cuomo step up - he wants to defund police but now wants them to do more? typical of all the defund police hypocrites.

Italian approach of city governance 'more police than civil society' diplomatically the police should be your mother knowing everything and guidance to everything

Right on And proper use of masks

Record Breaking Numbers of People shot in NY & Social Distancing is the concern? Defund the Police. Empower Criminals. Arrest people for not wearing a Mask.

Tell the Governor to do it himself

Let them enforce CRIME, not social distancing.

We got your back NYPD

Lol the police know how the constitution works!!!! LOCK UP CUOMO ,NYPD!!!

Looting, Rioting, Terrorizing OK. Stand too close to someone is not ok 😂 you can’t make this shit up

It’s funny when they need the police

Why don't the state troopers step up their enforcement

This guy truly is a joke. Perhaps they should arrest him for sending sick people back to nursing homes

He needs a jingle : possibly Bob Marley’s Get Up Stand Up Social Distancings All Right Dont Give Up this fight

Would have been more helpful two months ago during all of those mass protests without social distancing.

Who cares what he says, waiting for his term ends.

I thought they were planning on defunding dung them? Careful what you wish for.

Sure Andy. Clearly that’s the biggest problem in NYC right now, lack of Social Distancing.......

So you have allowed police to get abused water dumped on and assaulted and you want them intervene on social distancing incidents? What can go wrong?

And then what? Stronger voices of 'Defund Police, few police officers get shot for asking to wear masks. Two weeks later, you throw 3-4 police in jail saying they put too much force to enforce mandatory mask? Come on decide first ehat you have to do with Police.

Except when you need help carrying out that 70' HDTV

Also looting and rioting.

YOUR STATE IS DEFUNDING THE POLICE YOU CRACKHEAD! Sounds like a great opportunity for you to step up and do your job!

Yeah right! ...but only if they funded exists🤔

That's why no one is in NY all taxpayers are leaving.😷😷

Just as soon as he removes DeBlasio

NYGovCuomo wants the police defunded yet wants them to step up. His liberal Democratic ways have ruined NY.

They need to remove the mayor.

LOLOL. You just need to step down

United Against Racism and Fascism NYC - Watch this vile human spew racist insults, threaten to spit on us...and then do it. Thanks to the person who shared this video with us. NewYork KarensGoneWild Karen protests DefundThePolice NewsClapper nypost messagetime

Beginning to feel that NYGovCuomo is 'hiding out' behind social distancing and masks. Avoiding other equally pressing problems right now, including the violence in New York City.

Never mind the looting and roiting.

Send the social workers instead

Ummm... murders are way up. Maybe take a look at those first.

Why aren’t they enforcing the public drug use and urination and indecency on the streets?

🤡 I thought you liberals want to defund them. And think they are the enemies.

They are social distancing themselves out of your state permanently.

🤡
