Putnam County Executive Mary Ellen Odell says the region has been watching other regions in New York as they've reopened from the coronavirus shut down.  The Reopen Putnam Safely Task Force was formed recently to ensure a continued decline in positive cases.  Odell says over the Memorial Day weekend, residents at Putnam beaches showed restraint and were responsible with social distancing practiced.  According to the New York State reopening benchmarks, 30 contact tracers are needed per 100,000 residents.  However, reopening requirements for Putnam County called for 84 contact tracers in order to track and identify people who may become sick and advise them on how to avoid spreading the virus further.
