More than 33 million people in the state will be affected by the lockdown.
A pandemic of the novel coronavirus has now infected more than 66.4 million people and killed over 1.5 million worldwide, according to real-time data compiled by the Center for Systems Science and Engineering at Johns Hopkins University.
The number of COVID-19 deaths has gone up in 48 states and Washington, D.C., from two weeks ago, The COVID Tracking Project said Friday.
There were 2,563 deaths reported on Friday, it said.
There were 224,831 daily new cases reported and 101,276 current hospitalizations -- both new highs -- according to the tracker.
Hospitalizations are up in 34 states and Washington, D.C., from two weeks ago, it said.
New York state reported 11,271 new COVID-19 cases on Thursday -- the highest daily figure the state has seen since mid-April, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Friday.
New York's daily positivity rate stands at 5.41%.
New York has the fourth-lowest infection rate in the country behind Maine, Vermont and Hawaii.
Over 70% of cases are coming from small gatherings, Cuomo said, and he called on local governments to enforce restrictions.
Cuomo said that the focus should be on the hospitalization rate rather than the infection rate.
New York has 4,222 COVID-19 patients in hospitals. The state has 53,000 hospital beds, of which 35,000 are occupied, he said.
Intensive care units have about 40% of their beds available, he said.

Much of the San Francisco Bay Area will soon be under a stay-at-home order.
The order ends indoor and outdoor dining at restaurants, closes hair salons and other personal care services, and prohibits all private gatherings, ABC San Francisco station KGO reported.
The stay-at-home order covers Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Santa Clara, San Francisco counties as well as the city of Berkeley, KGO said.
Most areas will start the stay-at-home order Sunday; Alameda County will start Monday while Marin County will begin Tuesday. The restrictions will last until Jan. 4.
Gov. Gavin Newsom had announced Thursday that a stay-at-home order will go into effect in any region where the ICU capacity falls below 15%. Bay Area officials said they didn't want to wait until numbers fell to 15%, KGO reported.
In Oregon, modeling shows that case rates will be twice as high by Christmas, Gov. Kate Brown warned.
A record high of 2,100 new cases were reported Friday, Brown said.
Oregon is set to receive 35,000 doses of the Pfizer vaccine and 71,000 doses of the Moderna vaccine this month, Brown said. Front-line healthcare workers and long-term care residents and employees are considered first priority; Brown said she anticipates this entire group can be vaccinated by the end of January.
