CUOMO CREDITS HIS DAUGHTERS
In his official address, which aired live on NBC, Andrew Cuomo began by stating that New York was the epicentre of the pandemic. However, with time, the state could change that narrative and "save over 100,000 citizens."

"I want to thank my Cara, Mariah, and Michaela for keeping me grounded…"
PLAYING THEIR PARTS
