Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family as well as to all those affected.,” Yeshiva University announced on its website Wednesday morning. The private university cancelled classes at its Washington Heights campus for the day. The boy’s father, a Manhattan lawyer, tested positive Monday for the coronavirus disease despite no known travel links to countries at the center of the outbreak, leading officials to order hundreds of congregants at his New Rochelle synagogue to quarantine in their homes. The 50-year-old man, who had underlying respiratory issues and first developed symptoms in late February, remains in critical condition at the New York-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center in Manhattan, according to health officials. The man’s daughter attends SAR Academy and High School in the Bronx, which has been voluntarily shut down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
