According to CNN, from November 19th local time, as the average seven-day positive rate of COVID-19 testing has reached the threshold of 3%, New York City will close public school buildings, and all students will transition to distance learning.

New York Mayor de Blasio said on the 18th that the city’s public schools will stop teaching offline from the 19th, at least until Thanksgiving, during which the city government will agree with the state government on the standards for reopening schools and strengthen testing.
