Andrew Cuomo announces coronavirus 'emergency summit' with five other governors

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced he would be meeting with governors from six other northeastern states this weekend for an “emergency summit” as the number of COVID-19 cases continues to increase.

“We want to make sure that we can align policies as much as possible or at least be aware of what the other states’ policies are,” Cuomo told reporters Friday. “The ideal is alignment. That is not a reality because different states do have different situations and they’re in different positions.”
