Cuomo extending restaurant curfew to midnight, sets guidance for racetracks Denis Slattery
ALBANY Last call for bars and restaurants in New York will be an hour later next week as Gov. Cuomo announced Wednesday that the state is extending its current COVID curfew on eateries until midnight.
Starting on Monday, the new rule will allow establishments to remain open past the current 11 p.m. curfew, the governor said.
“As the numbers are down on COVID, we talk about adjusting the valve,” Cuomo said during an afternoon call with reporters. “We caution New Yorkers, don’t get cocky. The disease is still very much with us. We have to stay smart until COVID is crushed and it won’t be crushed until we get herd immunity and we won’t get herd immunity until we’re finished vaccinating everyone.”
