cases risks overwhelming new york's hospital system cases in the stage climb to more than 7038 people have sort of died. and here's what new york governor andrew camara had to say about the measures. today we're bringing you to 100 percent of the workforce must stay home. these are non essential services essential services have to continue to function grocery stores need food pharmacies need drugs your internet has to continue to work the water has to turn on when you turn a faucet so there are essential services that will continue to function but 100 percent of the workforce and when i talk about the most drastic action we can take this is the most respect action we can all ride for more let's bring in d w correspondent all of a sound in washington good to see you there nearly 20000000 people living in the

state of new york how exactly are these drastic measures going to billy be implemented all right it's very populous state and this is an executive order jared so new york governor andrew cuomo as you just mentioned said that the state of new york is facing a situation where it's hospitals are increasingly overwhelmed due to the spread of the corona virus and in order to avoid the spread of virus from further spreading people will have to stay at home starting sunday 8 pm which of course is an interesting time because it's after the weekend and gives people and citizens of new york the time to go about their everyday lives and potentially also spread the virus until then after that non-essential businesses will have to close there are of course the typical exceptions that we've been seeing across other countries and cities that are in a lockdown like supermarkets and pharmacies will remain open but public life as we
