The results show that,Family/social gatherings are the largest route of virus transmission, accounting for 73.84% of new infections;Medical services are the second largest transmission channel, accounting for 7.81%; followed by college students accounting for 2.02%; educators accounting for 1.5%;Only 1.43% of the new cases came from restaurants and bars-of course, this result may be related to the fact that the catering industry has been closely monitored by law enforcement officers.Hairdressing and personal care caused 0.14% of infections; gyms accounted for only 0.06%.

It is worth mentioning that the current transmission rate in New York State is 1.3, which means that for every person infected, 1 people will be infected.

"The vast majority of infections occur in people's homes, especially when everyone is together." Florida Governor DeSantis said, "closing indoor dining in restaurants will only in turn lead to more people gathering at home."
