New York governor ends daily briefings, claims success June 20, 2020 at 05:27AM

New York governor Andrew Cuomo wrapped up a string of more than 100 daily briefings that had become appointment viewing around the nation by declaring that the state has “done the impossible” in taming the coronavirus. The Democratic governor appeared alone behind his desk Friday during a brief address, a departure from his routine of presenting slides with bar graphs of Covid-19 hospitalizations and then taking questions from reporters.
