Does anyone know until when the lockdown was extended? Several news outlets like xxv ABC say June 13 but others, like NPR say May 28. So, which is it?

Wow! So now we have 3 dates. How does this govt expect people to know what the law is. When they are so unclear!?

It’s funny I was having this discussion with my teens today. They insisted that it was May 28th and I heard on the news June 13th. Welcome to crazy NY

I'm asking about NY where reputable news outlets are currently using May 28 and June 13 so trying to clarify which it is

For New York City, it is now extended through May 28 as it hasn't met all seven of the indicia they are using. Of course, it can be further extended depending on results closer to May 28

Keep in mind that it doesn't mean that everything in New York City will be open and back to normal as there are phased in easing of restrictions.

Gov Cuomo said May 28 (friday)

It will end up being June 13 anyway so only if you prefer to take it slowly you can start with May 28...

PAUSE which only allows essential businesses open was extended until May 28.
NY's state of emergency was extended until June 13.

It gives the governor more authority without needing to go through regular procedures.

At this point assume forever. Or until the elections. Whatever comes first.

An amother asks a vague question, in no geographical forum.
AND GETS ANSWERS.
BECAUSE OF COURSE IT'S NEW YORK.
(Don't get me wrong, OP, I love you. It's just that I guess I had to get it out of my system eventually.)

Bc a question this idiotic (not the q the fact that it has to even be asked) can only apply to NY.
I dont see any other state on vague extended for no reason lockdown. Maybe nj.

It's in a different one: "The Chicago tri-state area or Chicagoland, includes northeast Illinois, Northwest Indiana and southeast Wisconsin. Parts of southwest Michigan in the Michiana region are also culturally tied to Chicago. The Tri-State Tollway connects Illinois' portion of Chicagoland with Northwest Indiana and southeast Wisconsin." More tri-state areas here.

My husband is sitting shiva for his brother right now. I assure you that if it were you, you’d understand the reason for social distancing requirements.
