New Yorkers React To The State's First Case Of Coronavirus

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo announced the state's first confirmed case of Coronavirus last night, the same day as the first deaths from the disease were announced. The victim, a 39 year old woman who had just traveled to Iran, is currently quarantined in her Manhattan apartment. It's predicted her husband will be host to the virus as well. While Cuomo assured the state that the risk is low, scared commuters and comedians from the city aired their fears and jokes on Twitter. And they're as entertaining as a pandemic can allow. Let's just hope people remember to wash their hands and are able to find some masks. The subway is about to become a very, very scary place.
