(WBNG) -- In addition to the workforce reduction, Governor Cuomo also called for health departments and regulated health facilities across the state to make non-essential ventilators available.

"We need those ventilators. The ventilators are to this war what missiles were to World War II," Cuomo said.

The call for ventilators is part of Cuomo's Policies that Assure Uniform Safety for Everyone (PAUSE) plan.

UPDATE:

(WBNG) -- Governor Andrew Cuomo is mandating that all non-essential employees work from home in wake of the coronavirus pandemic.

The move is up from the 75 percent of employees should work mandate from home that the governor announced Thursday.
