What's happened is local leaders, in fact, just about an hour ago said they don't have the resource is to fully clean out locations where large groups gathered to try to rout out this virus.

So the governor and state health commissioner are bringing in the troops.

Governor Andrew Cuomo singled out New Rochelle from the beginning of his late morning announcement.

The numbers are going up unabated on We do need a special public health strategy for new Rose show.

The plan the governor and state health commissioner said they will implement will be disruptive.

But, they added, It's for good reason.

This is the single greatest public health challenge we have in the state right now.

A containment zone set up for two weeks starting Thursday.

It's a circle radiating one mild from the young Israel synagogue, where the lawyer who was New York's second Corona virus case attended service is at events held here.

Dozens more people got infected, many hundreds of them are quarantined.

Now they have confronted this challenge in a fashion that is not only responsible, but I would characterize as inspiring New Rochelle's mayor late this afternoon tried to respond to the communities comments and questions about what's happening.

This will hold the spread.

This is what we have to do and my go be able to leave that condone zone.

You know, it's not as though no shells going gonna become a militarized community.

We're not gonna have checkpoints and the mayor saying that any place where large groups congrats, such as schools, synagogues, churches, community centers all are affected.

He says that he and his family are being affected in a personal way because no visitors are allowed at nursing homes.

Very important, he points out.

But he says as a result, he can't visit his mother while she's disappointed, and so is his family.

They all say it's really for the best what it will look like here come the end of the week, Mayor says.

We'll have to see.

But again, not a militarized zone.
