Ground Stop at NY area airports due to COVID-19

Ground stop now in effect — all departures stopped — for JFK, LGA, EWR due to positive covid-19 tests. Other regional airspace sectors halted through key “gates” through NY air traffic areas.

edit - looks like FAA site is temporarily down. From what I’ve seen, there may have been an evacuation due to a staff person testing positive.
