Another 367 New Yorkers have died from the coronavirus, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Sunday — a “terrible” loss, but the lowest number of daily fatalities recorded this month.

The overall toll rose to 16,966 on the strength of the new fatalities, recorded in the 24-hour period ending at midnight Sunday.

“That would normally be terrible news,” said Cuomo of the new deaths. “It’s only not terrible news compared to where we were.”

The daily death toll peaked at 799 on April 8, and the 367 losses represents the lowest 24-hour count since March 30, which saw 332 fatalities.

Total hospitalizations continued their gradual decline, as did new daily admissions, sitting Saturday at 1,087, also the lowest it’s been since late March.

Officials are watching the metrics with bated breath to make sure that the worst is truly over, Cuomo said.

“We’re still watching [the] big questions. How fast does that number continuing to come down?” he said, speaking specifically of total hospitalizations. “First, does that number continue to come down?

“Because that would be a nightmare if it ticks up.”
