NEW YORK, Aug. 10 (Xinhua) -- New York Governor Andrew Cuomo on Monday urged the New York City Police Department to step up enforcing social distancing rules on bars and restaurants while COVID-19 hospitalizations and ICU patients in the state have dropped to their lowest levels since March.
"We need the NYPD to step up," Cuomo said, adding the state issued 19 violations to bars or restaurants on Sunday. "This is an enforcement issue, not an information issue. I need the local governments and the local police departments to enforce - it's that simple."
