Throughout the present public health crisis, Governor Andrew Cuomo has demonstrated remarkable leadership.  His daily press conferences have been calm, measured, fact-based, and full of relevant context.  From a New Rochelle perspective, I am particularly grateful to the Governor and his team for their devotion of attention and resources to our local needs.   During today’s press conference, the Governor also offered some very welcome clarification on the meaning of the New Rochelle “containment zone,” which has been widely misunderstood.  That section of the Governor’s comments begins at about 30:55 in this video.  Each and every one of the restrictions within our “containment zone” has since been overtaken and exceeded by even more stringent (and necessary) standards applied statewide.  In a sense, all of New York is now a containment zone, and all of America is almost sure to follow.
