As of April 2020, in response to the global pandemic crisis caused by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), 30 states within the United States have defined construction activities as essential, while a total of 45 declared orders limiting work activities. In New York, Governor Cuomo clarified that "all non-essential construction must shut down except for emergency construction". Emergency construction in this case includes projects that would protect the health and safety of occupants or a project that would be unsafe if it remained unfinished.
