Andrew Cuomo won’t be having Thanksgiving with his mother after all. “Given the current circumstances with Covid, [Cuomo] will have to work through Thanksgiving,” his senior adviser Rich Azzopardi told the Wall Street Journal’s Jimmy Vielkind. Cuomo has been asking New Yorkers over the past few days to refrain from traveling or gathering with older relatives for Thanksgiving. Azzopardi said on Monday that Cuomo’s mom hadn’t been told yet that their Thanksgiving was canceled, although they did have a difficult discussion about Thanksgiving plans last week. New York state has averaged nearly 5,500 new cases a day over the past seven days.
