Coronavirus killing more than a person an hour in NYC

The coronavirus killed city residents at a rate of more than one per hour on Friday.

Between just 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., 14 people in New York City died from the virus, pushing the Big Apple’s total death toll to 43.

The toll had been 29 prior to Friday’s jump in deaths.

It was the first time that the city’s single-day toll had hit double digits.

It’s a very small sample of hours. There is nothing to not believe. 24 people happen to die in 8 hours— very reasonable, but also sad.

Is it because New York is so transient - more out of country visitors?
