据疾病控制和预防中心(CDC)称，纽约市死于新冠状病毒的人数比一些国家多，但这一数字可能更高。
美国疾病预防控制中心周一发布的一份分析指出，有5293例死亡病例可能与新的冠状病毒爆发有关美联社。研究人员通过计算3月中旬至5月初该市的死亡人数，并将其与官员通常预计的时间范围内的死亡人数进行比较来计算死亡人数。
近5300人死亡是在纽约官员已经报告的确认死亡和可能死亡之外。
美联社报道，“追踪超额死亡率对于理解COVID-19疾病和非COVID疾病缺乏治疗的死亡率的贡献是很重要的”。

据美联社报道，还需要进行更多的调查，但死亡可能是由于对医院和医疗服务提供者的需求增加，以及公众担心促使人们推迟接受治疗造成的。
新闻周刊联系了疾病预防控制中心和纽约州长安德鲁·科莫，但没有及时收到发表的回复。
根据约翰·霍普金斯大学维护的一个跟踪器，纽约市，疫情的中心，已经报告了184，417例病例和19，789例死亡。尽管该市还有很长的复苏路要走，但周一，科莫宣布该州其他地区可能于周五开始重新开放。
“这是一个激动人心的新阶段，我们都渴望回去工作，”科莫在他的每日简报中说。“我们想聪明地去做，我们想聪明地去做，但我们想去做。”
三个北部地区——南线、莫霍克谷和手指湖——符合开办一些企业的标准，第一批可以重新开业的行业将是建筑、制造和零售，并有路边小货车。州长还批准免下车电影院和低风险娱乐场所，如网球场重新开放。根据州卫生部的数据，与纽约市近20，000人死亡相比，这三个州北部地区已经有大约365人死亡。
最近的一项行政命令授予科莫权力，将他的家庭指令延长至5月15日最后期限之后。周五，该命令极有可能会在该州的至少部分地区延期，比如纽约市，但尚不清楚州长会维持多久。
AS NEW YORK RELEASES REOPENING PLAN, STUDY SHOWS NYC'S REAL CORONAVIRUS DEATH TOLL COULD BE FAR WORSE THAN OFFICIAL COUNT
New York City has had more deaths from a new coronavirus that some countries, but it's possible that number is even higher, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
A CDC analysis released on Monday identified 5,293 excess deaths that could be related to the new coronavirus outbreak, according to the Associated Press. Researchers calculated the number by taking the number of deaths in the city between mid-March and early May and comparing it to what officials would normally expect to see during the time frame.
The nearly 5,300 deaths were in addition to the confirmed and probably fatalities that New York officials have already reported.
"Tracking excess mortality is important to understanding the contribution to the death rate from both COVID-19 disease and the lack of availability of care for non-COVID conditions," the AP reported.

Additional investigations are required but it's possible the deaths could have been caused by increased demands on hospitals and health care providers and public fear promoting people to delay getting care, according to the AP.
Newsweek reached out to the CDC and New York Governor Andrew Cuomo but did not receive a response in time for publication.
New York City, the epicenter of the outbreak, has reported 184,417 cases and 19,789 deaths, according to a tracker maintained by Johns Hopkins University. While the city has a long road of recovery ahead, on Monday, Cuomo announced other parts of the state could start reopening on Friday.
"It's an exciting new phase, we're all anxious to get back to work," Cuomo said during his daily briefing. "We want to do it smartly, we want to do it intelligently but we want to do it."
Three regions upstate–the Southern Tier, Mohawk Valley and the Finger Lakes–met the criteria for opening some businesses and the first sectors that could reopen would be construction, manufacturing and retail with curbside pickup. The governor also cleared drive-in movie theaters and low-risk recreational venues, such as tennis courts to reopen, as well. Compared to the nearly 20,000 deaths in New York City, the three upstate regions have had about 365 deaths, according to the State Health Department.
A recent executive order granted Cuomo the power to extend his stay-at-home order past the May 15 deadline. It's highly likely the order will be extended on Friday for at least parts of the state, such as New York City, but it's unclear how long the governor will keep it in place.
