John,

Yesterday, Mike and New York Governor Andrew Cuomo shared new details on a
large-scale contact tracing program to help fight the COVID-19 crisis and
reopen the economy. The effort will allow New York State to recruit, train, and
deploy an "army" of contact tracers to track infections across the state.

The work ahead will be a model for other states -- laying the groundwork for
future efforts. Resources will include a world-class online curriculum for
contact tracers developed by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public
Health, and the public release of a playbook for implementing contact tracing
in other communities.

To learn more about contact tracing and why it's such an important tool in
this fight, watch this video with Dr. Kelly Henning, head of the Public Health
Program at Bloomberg Philanthropies:

Contact tracing will play a critical role in safely reopening the economy --
enabling swift detection of new cases and prevention of new infections. As Mike
said during yesterday's briefing with Governor Cuomo: "When social distancing
is relaxed, contact tracing is our best hope for isolating the virus when it
appears -- and keeping it isolated."

Bloomberg Philanthropies has committed $10.5 million, along with
organizational support and technical assistance, to help build and implement
the program. The work ahead will be an important model for efforts across the
country.

Watch the video to find out how contact tracing can help us responsibly reopen
while protecting public health and limiting infections:
