Testing targeted people who were out in society shopping: New York Governor
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said on Thursday a screening of 3,000 residents found that 13.9 per cent tested positive for antibodies for the novel coronavirus, suggesting that some 2.7 million people across the state may have been infected.
Mr Cuomo noted that the survey was preliminary and limited by other factors.
He said the testing targeted people who were out in society shopping, meaning that they may be more likely to be infected than people isolating at home
