2934 new cases and 246 new deaths in the United States

23196 new cases and 1384 new deaths in the United States [source]

26509 new cases and 1157 new deaths in the United States

31889 new cases and 2340 new deaths in the United States

New York State Governor Cuomo said that preliminary findings from an antibody study conducted on 3,000 people at grocery stores across New York State found a 13.9% had coronavirus antibodies, suggesting a 13.9% actual infection rate statewide (21.2% in New York City), which translates to an estimate of about 2,700,000 actual cases in New York State (10 times more than the about 270,000 cases that have been detected and reported officially). Governor Cuomo acknowledged that the official count reported by New York State (which still is not including probable deaths as recommended by the new CDC guidelines) of about 15,500 deaths is "not accurate" as it doesn't account for stay at home deaths. Based on Worldometer's count (which includes probable deaths reported by New York City) of about 21,000 deaths and the 2,700,000 case estimate from the new antibody study, the actual case fatality rate in New York State could be at around 0.78% [source]

NOTE: Montgomery County (PA) has lowered the reported number of deaths substantially, affecting today's count as well as the previous days statewide figures.
