Hudson, NY - APRIL 20: A sign in a store front says CLOSED sitting on a chair. On April 15, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo announced that he was going to sign an executive order that requires everyone in the state to wear a mask or a mouth/nose covering in public when not social distancing. New York remains the epicenter of the coronavirus with over 200,000 cases. Governor Cuomo and other governors around the country have been sparing with President Donald Trump about the timing to reopen states without setting off another outbreak. Photographed in Hudson, NY, USA on April 20, 2020. New York residents remain under a lock down restricting in their ability to go out and required to maintain social distance during the coronavirus pandemic. (Photo by Ira L.
