New York Governor Andrew Cuomo reports 599 new deaths in his state over the last day, a slight increase from a day earlier, but several dozen fewer than the record 630 deaths recorded Friday.
A total of 4,758 people in the state have died of the virus, according to The New York Times.
The numbers push the US death toll past 10,000.
Cuomo also says the state has now recorded 130,689 cases, more than any country in the world outside of Italy, which has had more than 135,000 cases, according to a Johns Hopkins University tally.
