NY Gov. Cuomo says non-essential travel among region should be avoided
ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — The rate of COVID-19 infections has risen enough in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut to require those states' residents to quarantine if they travel to New York, but Gov. Andrew Cuomo says New York won't enforce the rules against those residents.
New Jersey, New York and Connecticut had announced the joint travel advisory this summer at a time when the Northeast was seeing relatively low rates of infection while other parts of the country saw spikes. Now, two of those states meet the criteria to be placed on their own quarantine lists.
But the governor said Tuesday he doesn't expect residents from Connecticut, New Jersey or Pennsylvania to follow New York's rule requiring self-quarantine for 14 days for states on the list.
